NUMBER 13-15-00075-CR
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
JUAN MANUEL ALFARO, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
On appeal from the 389th District Court
of Hidalgo County, Texas.
ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF
Before Justices Garza, Benavides, and Longoria
Order Per Curiam
This cause is currently before the Court on appellant's third unopposed motion for
extension of time to file the brief. The clerk’s record was filed on April 10, 2015, and
appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed thirty days thereafter. See Tex. R. App. P.
38.6(a). This Court has previously granted appellant two extensions of time totaling 155
days to file the brief, and appellant now seeks an additional 60 days, until December 14,
2015, to file the brief.
The Court GRANTS IN PART and DENIES IN PART appellant's third motion for
extension of time. This motion is GRANTED insofar as the Court will extend appellant's
deadline to file his brief until November 23, 2015. This motion is DENIED insofar as the
Court will not allow an extension until December 14, 2015. No further extensions will be
granted absent exigent circumstances. If counsel fails to file the brief within the specified
period of time, the Court will act appropriately to ensure that appellant's rights are
protected. See id. R. 38.8(b)(4).
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
Delivered and filed the
4th day of November, 2015.
