FROM THE DESK OF VEARNEAS W. FAGGETT, CSR OFFICIAL COURT REPORTER CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 7 FILED IN DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS 75207 5th COURT OF APPEALS 972-739-3906 DALLAS, TEXAS 8/10/2015 3:16:58 PM ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LISA MATZ Clerk August 10, 2015 Ms. Clara Saavedra The Fifth District Court of Appeals George Allen, Sr. Courts Building Commerce Street, 2nd Floor Dallas, Texas 75202-3400 RE: HERSHELL STEWART VS THE STATE OF TEXAS COA NO. 05-15-00352-CR - TRIAL COURT NO. F12-57547-Y Dear Ms. Saavedra: I, Vearneas W. Faggett, would like to request a 30-day extension from the Fifth District Court of Appeals in the above-stated cause. I am the Official Court Reporter in Criminal District Court No. 7 of Dallas County, Texas. I reported the stenographic notes of the proceedings in the aforementioned cause of action.

I would have been done by August 10, 2015 were it not for unforeseen software issues that came up and, as a result, I have not been able to work on transcripts as diligently as I would like and also with the daily commitments of trying to locate evidence and different things from the tenure of the last reporter, as well as other transcript commitments that were due prior to this one, I have been unable to finish the Reporter’s Record in this case.

As a result of everything that has been going on, I’m asking prayerfully for 30 days extension or until September 11, 2015 to complete this transcript.

Your consideration in this matter is deeply appreciated. This is my first request for an extension on this record.

Respectfully submitted, /S/VEARNEAS W. FAGGETT, CSR 3129
