COMES NOW, DANIEL EDISON. Appellant in the above-captioned cause,

by and through his attorney of record, and respectfully moves the Court for an extension of time in which to file the Appellant's Brief, as provided by TEX. R. APP.

PROC. 10.5. In support hereof, Appellant would show unto the Court the following:

1. Appellant was found guilty in Cause Nos. 1372460 and 1379135.

2. Appeal was perfected when written notice of appeal was filed after

Appellant was convicted by the judge after a sentencing hearing. This

Court has the brief scheduled for filing on or before April 2, 2015.

3. Appellant requests an extension of 30 days, until May 2, 2015 in which

to file the brief.

4. One previous extensions of time have been requested.

5. The facts relied upon to reasonably explain the need for an extension are

those set forth below:

Counsel handles many, many mental health matters in the Harris County criminal courts. Several critical issues have arisen in several cases, necessitating time taken that had been designated for the work on this and one other appeal. The brief in this matter is in progress and will be finished by week’s end.

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant respectfully prays the

Court grant this motion, thereby extending the time for filing the Appellant's Brief by

30 days, until May 2, 2015 in the interest of both justice and judicial economy. Respectfully submitted,
