O R D E R

PER CURIAM

Appellant filed his notice of appeal on April 3, 2008. The record was filed August 18. On September 19, appellant's attorney filed a request for an extension of time to file his brief. We granted that motion, making the brief due October 17. On October 22, counsel filed a second motion for further time, which we granted, extending the deadline to November 17. On November 25, we received a motion to substitute counsel, which we granted on December 5. New counsel then filed a motion for extension of time, asking for additional time to familiarize himself with the case. We granted that motion, extending the deadline to January 16, 2009. Counsel has now filed another motion, asking for another thirty days to file the brief. This is current counsel's second motion and the fourth motion filed in the cause. We grant this motion and order counsel to file the brief no later than February 20, 2009. If the brief is not filed, we will abate the matter and refer it to the trial court for further proceedings under rule 38.8 of the rules of appellate procedure. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8.
