TO THE HONORABLE THIRD DISTRICT COURT OF APPEALS:

       COMES NOW, Justin Carter, Appellant in the above styled and numbered cause, by and

       2.      Notice of receipt of the Reporter’s Record was received from this court on

               December 22, 2014.

       3.      Due to the holiday break, Defense counsel did not receive a copy of the reporter’s

               record until it was emailed to him on January 7, 2015.

       4.      Defense counsel will need a 14 day extension of the deadline in order to properly

               prepare Appellant’s brief.

       5.      No prior extensions have been sought for extending the time to file this brief.

       6.      This request is not made for the purposes of delay, but that justice may be done.
