Opinion

Order entered October 23, 2014

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-14-00695-CR

JAMES EDWARD ROGERS, JR., Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 196th Judicial District Court Hunt County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 28576

ORDER The Court has before it appellant’s October 8, 2014 request for an extension of time to

file his pro se response to the Anders brief filed by counsel. In the request, appellant

acknowledges that his response is not due until December 16, 2014, but states that he needs

“additional time” to research and prepare his response.

Because the pro se response is not due for nearly two months, counsel has provided

appellant a copy of the record, and appellant has not shown he is not able to file the pro se

response, we DENY the request without prejudice to appellant filing a subsequent extension at

such time as the pro se response is due.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send a copy of this order, by first-class mail, to James E.

Rogers, Jr., TDCJ No. 1937467, Estelle Unit, 264 F.M. 3478, Huntsville,TX 77320-3320. We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of the order, by electronic transmission, to counsel

for all parties.
