THIRD MOTION TO EXTEND TIME TO FILE APPELLANT'S BRIEF

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:

Now comes VERNON LANDRY, Appellant in the above styled and numbered cause, and moves this Court to

grant an extension of time to file appellant's brief, pursuant to Rule 38.6 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, and

for good cause shows the following:

1. This case is on appeal from the Criminal District Court of Jefferson County, Texas.

2. The case below was styled the STATE OF TEXAS vs. VERNON LANDRY, and numbered 11-11681,

11-11715 and 11-11720.

3. Appellant was convicted of BURGLARY OF A HABITATION, AGGRAVATED ASSAULT, and

VIOLATION OF A PROTECTIVE ORDER.

4. Appellant was assessed a sentence of ten (10) years in 11-11681 and 1-11720, and to twenty (20)
