                                 1
      COMES NOW, CODY BRIGHT, Appellant herein, and moves this court to

issue an extension of time to file his petition for discretionary review, and in

support thereof would show the court as follows:

                                             I.

      The opinion of the Fifth Court of Appeals in cause nos. 05-13-00997-CR

and 05-13-00998-CR, affirming the conviction, was rendered on May 19, 2015.

                                             II.

      The number and style of the case in the District Court is No. F12-23970 and

F12-23977, State of Texas v. Cody Bright.

                                            III.

      Appellant was convicted of two charges of aggravated assault with a deadly

weapon.

                                            IV.

      The present deadline for filing the petition for discretionary review is June

18, 2015.

                                             V.

      No extensions of time to file the brief were previously requested.

                                            VI.

      The reason for this request is that during the last few weeks counsel has been

working on the following:
