                     UNOPPOSED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME
                             TO FILE OPENING BRIEF

From the 175th District Court of Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2012-CR-10101
Hon. Mary Roman, Judge Presiding

       In accordance with Tex. R. App. Pro. 10.5(b)(1), the undersigned counsel submits his

“Unopposed Motion to for Extension of Time to File Opening Brief,” and shows as follows:

       This Court’s current briefing deadline is Friday, January 2, 2014.            Counsel needs

additional time to finish all legal research related to the brief, and will need an additional 30-day

extension of time to complete it. Counsel underwent shoulder surgery on Tuesday, November

25, 2014, which prevented him full use of his left arm, and the ability to type, for approximately

three weeks.

       On Wednesday, December 30, the undersigned counsel consulted with a legal

assistant with the Appellate Division of the Bexar County District Attorneys Office, who

informed that Asst. Dist. Atty. Enrico Valdez had no opposition to the requested extension

of time.

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully requests that this

Court grant the requested extension of time to file his opening brief.
      Respectfully submitted,
