THE STATE OF TEXAS § IN THE COURT OF APPEALS
VS. § 6TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
MIKE ALVIN RUIZ § TEXARKANA, TEXAS
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE COURT OF APPEALS:
NOW COMES the State of Texas by and through her District Attorney for the Eighth
Judicial District of Hopkins County, Texas, regarding the above styled and numbered cause, and
would respectfully request an extension of time for filing the State’s brief in said case pursuant to
Rule 73 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and would respectfully show the following:
I.
The Brief for the State on appeal was due to be filed on or before 8th day of September
2015.
II.
That the State respectfully requests this Honorable Court to grant an extension of time of
three days. In connection therewith, the State would show the following facts relied upon in good
faith to show good cause to the Honorable Court of Appeals regarding this motion for extension
of time:
The 8th Judicial District Attorney’s office was notified by the Court of Appeals via
email that Appellant’s brief had been filed, but due to inadvertent error, the State’s
3
attorney responsible for filing the State’s brief was not forwarded the email until
September 9, 2015. The State’s attorney responsible for writing the brief respectfully
requests that this Court accept his brief submitted on September 10, 2015.
This request for an extension of time is sought not for delay but to provide the State with
an adequate amount of time to properly respond to the Appellant’s brief so that justice may be
done.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the State of Texas respectfully requests and
prays that the Honorable Court of Appeals grant an extension up to the present day to prepare
and file an Appellee Brief.
Respectfully submitted,
Nicholas C. Harrison
Assistant District Attorney
