                Motion for Extension of Time To File
                    Appellant's Brief on Appeal
         TO THE HONORABLE FOURTH COURT OF APPEALS:
                      COMES NOW, Benny Cavazos Valverde, Appellant in the
         above styled and numbered cause (“Appellant”), by and through
         his retained counsel, David A. Schulman, his undersigned
         attorney of record, and respectfully enters this “Motion for
         Extension of Time to File Appellant's Brief on Appeal,” and in
         support of such Motion would show the Court:

                                                    I

                      Appellant was convicted of the offense of murder in the 290th
         District Court of Bexar County, then timely perfected his appeal.
         The deadline for filing Appellant's Brief with the Court is the 23rd
         day of March, 2015. Appellant's request for an extension is based
         upon the inability of the undersigned attorney to complete his



                                                    1
review of the record, which runs in excess of 1200 pages, and to
finish research on the issues raised by the trial of the case.

                                 II
    Said attorney would further show that he will require an
additional thirty (30) days in which to complete the research and
prepare Appellant's Brief on Appeal. This is Appellant's second
request for an extension of time in which to file his brief.

                              Prayer
    WHEREFORE PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays this
Honorable Court to grant his “Motion for Extension of Time to File
Brief on Appeal,” and Order that the deadline for filing such be
extended an additional thirty (30) days, until April 22, 2015, or
until such time as set by this Court.
                             Respectfully submitted,
