COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG

PAULO TREVINO, Appellant,

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.

On appeal from the 214th District Court of Nueces County, Texas.

ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF Before Justices Garza, Benavides, and Perkes Order Per Curiam

This cause is currently before the Court on appellant's fourth motion for extension

of time to file the brief. The reporter’s record was filed on January 26, 2015, and

appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed thirty days thereafter. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). This Court has previously granted appellant three extensions of time totaling 91

days to file the brief, and appellant now seeks additional time to file the brief.

The Court GRANTS appellant’s fourth motion for extension to file the brief and

ORDERS the Honorable Roberto G. Vela to file the brief on or before June 26, 2015.

The Court looks with disfavor on the delay caused by counsel’s failure to timely file a brief

in this matter. No further extensions will be granted absent exigent circumstances. If

counsel fails to file the brief within the specified period of time, the Court will act

appropriately to ensure that appellant's rights are protected. See id. R. 38.8(b)(4).

PER CURIAM

Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the 11th day of June,2015.
