David HINOJOSA, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee

No. 04-22-00401-CR

Court of Appeals of Texas, Fourth District, San Antonio

November 23, 2022

From the 290th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018CR0444 Honorable Jennifer Pena, Judge Presiding.

ORDER

Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice.

Appellant's brief was originally due October 19, 2022; however, the court granted an extension of time to file the brief until November 18, 2022. On November 17, 2022, appellant filed a motion requesting until December 16, 2022 to file the brief.

We grant the motion and order appellant's attorney, Niles Illich, to file the brief by December 16, 2022. Counsel is advised that no further extensions of time will be granted absent a motion, filed by the date the brief is due, that (1) demonstrates extraordinary circumstances justifying further delay, (2) advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. The court does not generally consider a heavy work schedule to be an extraordinary circumstance.
