Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON

ORDER ON MOTION Cause number: 01-14-00361-CR Style: Blake Anthony Monakino v. The State of Texas Date motion filed*: January 12, 2016 Type of motion: Third Motion to Extend Time to File Appellant’s Brief Party filing motion: Appellant Document to be filed: Appellant’s Brief

Is appeal accelerated? No.

If motion to extend time: Original due date: November 9, 2015 Number of extensions granted: 2 Current Due Date: January 11, 2016 Date Requested: February 10, 2016

Ordered that motion is:  Granted If document is to be filed, document due: February 10, 2016.  No further extensions of time will be granted.  Denied  Dismissed (e.g., want of jurisdiction, moot)  Other: _____________________________________ On December 14, 2015, the Clerk of this Court granted appellant’s second extension and warned counsel that no further extensions would be granted absent exceptional circumstances. Appellant’s third extension motion states that, since the last extension was granted, counsel has filed three briefs in other cases, discussed dismissal of this appeal with her client, and two new appellate attorneys have recently started in the Public Defender’s Office, but it will take a month or so for the office to catch up on their backlog. Thus, appellant’s third extension of time to file his brief is granted, but counsel is warned that no further extensions will be granted. Accordingly, if appellant’s brief is not filed by February 10, 2016, the Court will abate this appeal for a hearing. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2).
