TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS:

Appellant, FERNANDO RAZO, by and through his counsels of record,

File Brief and in support shows this Court the following:

I.

Appellant was convicted in the 208th District Court of Harris County, in Cause

No. 1416480, for the offense of intoxication manslaughter. Punishment was assessed at

10 years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institutional Division.

II.

The Clerk’s record was filed on May 8, 2015 and the Reporter’s record was filed

on July 27, 2015. Appellant’s Brief is currently due October 26, 2015, after one

extension of time was granted.

III.

Appellant requests an extension of thirty (30) days until November 25, 2015 to

file its brief. Counsel requests the additional time because the following briefs are due in

the next thirty (30) days: State v. Andreas Marcropoulos, State v. Brent Dalton, State v.

Mashood Uddin, State v. Jerrell Bell, and United States v. Alan Cruz-Palacios. For these

reasons, Counsel has been unable to submit Appellant’s Brief on the due date and hereby

requests an extension of time.

Court extend the time for filing Appellant’s Brief in this cause until November 25, 2015.

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,
