TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS OF TEXAS:

       COMES NOW THE STATE OF TEXAS, in accordance with Rules 10.5(b)(1) and

38.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and files this motion for extension of

time in which to file the State’s brief in this case, and, in support thereof, presents the

following:
       1. In the County Criminal Court at Law Number 5 of Harris County, Texas, in cause

number 1914785, the Appellant was charged with the offense of unlawfully carrying a

weapon, in The State of Texas v. Marcos M. Flores.

       2. In the County Criminal Court at Law Number 5 of Harris County, Texas, in cause

number 1969753, the Appellant filed an application for a pre-trial writ of habeas corpus, in

Ex parte Marcos M. Flores.

       3. On July 7, 2014, the trial court denied relief on the Appellant’s application for a

pre-trial writ of habeas corpus.

       4. A written notice of appeal was timely filed on July 7, 2014.

       5. The Appellant’s brief was filed with this Court on October 13, 2014.

       6. The State’s brief was due to be filed with this Court on January 13, 2015.

       7. An extension of time in which to file the State’s brief is requested until February

13, 2015.

       8. Two previous extensions have been granted to the State.

       9. The undersigned attorney recognizes that this case has been set for submission

before a panel of this Court on March 26, 2015. The State will not be need nor will be

requesting additional extensions of time.

       10. The facts relied upon to explain the need for this extension are:

       With his numerous duties as Chief of the Appellate Division, the undersigned
       assistant district attorney has needed some additional time in order to respond to
       the appellant’s brief in this case. The undersigned attorney is also assigned to
       prepare the State’s briefs in the following cases:

              Ryan Matthew Stairhime               No. PD-1071-14
              Jimmy Earl Drummond                  No. 01-14-00962-CR
       The undersigned attorney has also been called as a witness in the ongoing
       hearing on the application for a post-conviction writ of habeas corpus filed by
       David Mark Temple. Some time has been necessary in order to prepare for that
       testimony.


       WHEREFORE, the State prays that this Court will grant an extension of time until

February 13, 2015, in which to file the State’s brief in this case.


                                                             Respectfully submitted,
