motion for rehearing within 30 days in related cause number 01-14-00924-CR. Thus,
appellant’s extension request is similarly granted, in part, until September 8, 2015,
because, among other reasons, it was filed within the fifteen-day grace period for filing
extensions, but no further extensions will be granted absent extraordinary
circumstances. See TEX. R. APP. P. 49.8. The Clerk of this Court is directed to note
