TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

       NOW COMES, TRENT MUMPHREY , the Appellant herein, and moves the Court for

an extension of time to file Appellant=s Brief in this cause, pursuant to Rules 38.6 and 10.5 (b) of

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 the 114th District Court, Smith County,

Texas in cause number 114-0005-13 for the offense of Aggravated Robbery. On April 4, 2014,

punishment was assessed at life in TDCJ.

                                                 II.

       The Reporter=s record was filed on December 2, 2014. The Appellant=s Brief is due on or

about February 25, 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:
Since the filing of the Reporter’s Record in the instant case, several matters have resulted in

hearings, trials, or other proceedings in court.

The undersigned counsel is experiencing medical problems that have been explained in his letter

dated December 17, 2014 (see attachment); Surgery has been confirmed for March 4-5, 2015, in

Boston Massachusetts. In the interim, this counsel has had to devote time to presurgical tests and

other preparation. This counsel has also experienced a recent illness, related to this condition,

which has placed him under the care of a local doctor.

       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 one (1) month, to March 25, 2015.
