(c) This request is that the deadline for filing the State’s brief be extended by 30 days.

2. This request is not made for the purpose of delay, but to ensure that the Court has a proper State’s brief to aid in the just disposition of the above cause.

3

WHEREFORE, the State of Texas respectfully requests that the deadline for filing the State’s brief be extended to November 4, 2015.
