To the Honorable Judges of said Court:

Comes now Appellant, and respectfully requests that the time for filing a

Petition for Discretionary Review in the above-styled and numbered cause be

extended. In support of this motion Appellant would show:

1. On April 28, 2016, Appellant's conviction was affirmed by the Second

Court of Appeals in Cause No. 02-15-00181-CR styled Shamica Roberson v. The

State of Texas.

2. The present deadline for filing a Petition for Discretionary Review is June

11,2016. Appellant respectfully requests an extension oftime until August 12,2016. 3. No previous extension of time has been granted.

4. Appellant would show the Court that a reasonable explanation exists for the

requested extension. Appellant is currently without funds to hire counsel, is without

legal representation and is preparing the Petition for Discretionary Review pro se.

Appellant has limited legal knowledge. Appellant must research and draft the issues

herself.

Wherefore, premises considered, Appellant respectfully requests that the time

for filing a Petition for Discretionary Review be extended to August 12, 2016.

Respectfully submitted,

Shamica Roberson, Appellant
