TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

       NOW COMES, CHRISTIAN SIBLEY, the Appellant herein, and moves the Court for an

the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and in support thereof would show the Court as follows:

                                                 I.

       The Appellant in this cause was convicted in County Court at Law One, Gregg County,

Texas in cause number 2013-2143 for the offense of Escape from Custody. On October 20,

2014, punishment was assessed at three hundred thirty (330) days in the County Jail.

                                                 II.

       The Reporter=s record was filed on February 9, 2015. The Appellant=s Brief is due on or

about May 1, 2015.

                                                III.

       The Appellant hereby requests an extension of time to file Appellant=s Brief.

       The undersigned counsel has been unable to devote sufficient time to the review of the

record, research and preparation of Appellant=s Brief for the following good and sufficient

reasons:
   1. Defense Counsel has been involved in a very busy trial and appellate schedule in both

       state and federal courts.

   2. Counsel underwent surgery in Boston Massachusetts and is still under a doctor’s care.

       (See letter from Dr. Rotzler attached.)



       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the undersigned counsel, on behalf of

Appellant, respectfully prays that this Honorable Court extend the time for filing Appellant=s

Brief for an additional seven (07) days, to Friday, May 8, 2015.
