1 APPELLANT’S SECOND MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S INITIAL BRIEF ___________________________________________________________

TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

Appellant, under Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, 38.6(b), respectfully

requests the Court to extend the time to file Appellant’s Initial Brief and would

show the following:

1. Chad Lee Brubaker is the Appellant. The State of Texas is the

Appellee.

2. Appellant’s Initial Brief in this matter was due June 8, 2015.

3. Jennifer L. Bergman, was appointed to represent Appellant in his

appeal.

4. On June 8, 2015, counsel for Appellant had serious computer issues

and was unable to file Appellant’s Initial Brief. Thus counsel was

only able to file Appellant’s Initial Brief on June 9, 2015, after the

computer issues were resolved. Counsel is filing Appellant’s Initial

Brief contemporaneously with this Motion for Extension of Time to

File.

5. Therefore, Appellant requests this Honorable Court to grant Appellant

a three (3) day extension of time for the filing of Appellant’s Initial

Brief.

2 6. Appellant’s counsel was unable to speak with Kari Allen, an assistant

District Attorney with the Polk County District Attorney’s Office to

secure a response as to whether she opposed or did not oppose this

extension of time.

7. This is Appellant’s third request for an extension of time to file

Appellant’s Initial Brief in this matter, making this the third request

that has been made by Appellant.

8. Appellant requests this extension of time not for the purpose of delay,

but so that justice can be done and the matter properly presented to

this Honorable Court.

Respectfully submitted,
