                             THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

             MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPEAL BRIEF

 TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

       COMES NOW, MARQUIS JAMAL REED, the Appellant in the above entitled and
 numbered cause, by and through her attorney of record, Toby C. Wilkinson, and files
 her Motion for Extension of Time to File Appeal Brief in the above entitled and
 numbered cause, and would show unto this Honorable Court the following:

                                               I.

        Movant’s Appeal Brief is due for filing on or before June 6, 2018.

                                              II.

        This is Movant’s second request for extension in this cause.

                                              III.

       Movant requests an extension of time within which to file his Appeal Brief, and as
 reason therefore would show the Court as follows:

        Movant would show that his attorney received an extension to file his Brief on or
 before June 6, 2018. His attorney inadvertently read the letter as July 6, 2018. The
 attorney would show that he was working on a Capital Murder Trial and Jury Selection
 begins in July, 2018.

                                              IV.

       Attorney would show he discovered this error working on the Brief today when he
discovered this error.
                                            V.

      Movant’s attorney would show that the Appellant’s trial was approximately a week
long and the transcript covers numerous volumes.

                                            VI.

       The undersigned counsel respectfully requests this Honorable Court to extend
the time of filing of Movant’s Appeal Brief to June 13, 2018.



       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, TOBY C. WILKINSON prays that
this Honorable Court grant Movant's Motion for Extension of Time in this cause.

                                                  Respectfully submitted,
