ERIC ALAN MOORE, JR. v. THE STATE OF TEXAS _____________________________________

MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE PRO SE PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW ______________________________

TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF THE COURT OF CRIMINAL

APPEALS:

COMES NOW, Kristen Jernigan, the undersigned attorney of record for Eric

Alan Moore, Jr., the Appellant, herein, and files this Motion for Extension of Time

to File Pro Se Petition for Discretionary Review. As set out below, the undersigned

respectfully requests a sixty-day extension so that Appellant can file his Pro Se

Petition for Discretionary Review. In support of said motion, the undersigned

would show the Court the following:

1. Appellant’s Petition for Discretionary Review is currently due in this case on July 24, 2015. 2. Appellant seeks an extension of sixty days in which to file his Petition for Discretionary Review, making his Petition due on or before September 22, 2015.

3. The undersigned counsel will not be representing Appellant after the filing of this motion. Appellant will now have to obtain and review the record in order to prepare and file a Pro Se Petition for Discretionary Review. The undersigned believes that there is insufficient time between now and July 24, 2015, to accomplish those goals. Consequently, the undersigned respectfully requests that the Court grant Appellant the additional time.

4. The undersigned has not filed any previous motions for extension of time in this case.

5. For the reasons set forth above, the undersigned respectfully requests that Appellant be granted an extension of sixty days so that his brief in this case will now be due on September 22, 2015.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the undersigned

respectfully requests that this Court grant this Motion for Extension of Time to File

Pro Se Petition for Discretionary Review.

Respectfully submitted,
