Motion Denied and Order filed December 1, 2015.

In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-15-00330-CR ____________ SYLVIA MARIE COLLINS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 178th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1390220

ORDER Appellant is represented by appointed counsel, Cheri Duncan. Appellant’s brief was originally due August 17, 2015. We have granted a total of 90 days to file appellant’s brief until November 16, 2015. When we granted the last extension, we noted that no further extensions would be granted absent exceptional circumstances. No brief was filed. On November 16, 2015, counsel filed a further request for extension of time to file appellant’s brief. Counsel did not allege any exceptional circumstances in the request.

We deny the request for extension and issue the following order.

Accordingly, we order Cheri Duncan to file a brief with the clerk of this court on or before December 17, 2015. If counsel does not timely file appellant’s brief as ordered, the court will issue an order abating the appeal and directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the brief and the consideration of sanctions, appointment of new counsel, or other appropriate relief.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Jamison, McCally and Wise
