In support of this motion, Appellant would show: -I- The court below is the Criminal District Court 3 of Dallas County, Texas. The style of the case in the trial court is The State of Texas v. Adrian Uribe, with a trial court cause number of F17-70392-J.

- II - The jury found Appellant guilty of a family violence assault. Appellant was sentenced by the trial court to imprisonment for a period of 3 years, but the trial court suspended the imposition of the sentence and placed Appellant on probation.

Appellant is incarcerated at the current time because of philosophical differences regarding the trial court’s order that Appellant participate in the SAFPF program as part of his probation.

- III - Appellant is represented on appeal by undersigned counsel. According to this Court’s official on-line website, the current deadline for the filing of Appellant’s Brief is June 9, 2018, which is a Saturday. No prior extension has been requested by Appellant, such that no prior extensions have been granted by this Court.

- IV - Due to undersigned counsel’s other duties and commitments, Appellant respectfully requests an extension of time in the length of thirty (30) days, which would result in a new filing deadline of July 9, 2018 for Appellant’s Brief.

Undersigned counsel has recently filed the Appellant’s Brief in the cases of Dennis Sims v. The State of Texas, 05-18-00139-CR and 05-18-00141-CR (filed May 31, 2018) and the Appellant’s Amended Brief in the cases of Derek Lee Oestreich v. The State of Texas, 05-17-00545-CR and 05-17-00588-CR (filed June 6, 2018).

Appellant’s case is not currently set for submission, such that the granting of the instant motion should not unduly or substantially delay the eventual submission of Appellant’s case to this Court. Additionally, the extension is not sought for purposes of delay but to permit undersigned counsel to fully review the appellate record so as to increase the opportunity available to undersigned counsel to place before this Court the very best arguments relative to Appellant’s rights and legal interests.

-V- WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Appellant prays that this Court, pursuant to its inherent power to suspend the rules of appellate procedure as set out in Tex. R. App. P. 2, grant Appellant a 30-day extension of time for the filing of the Appellant’s Brief and establish July 9, 2018 as the new deadline for the filing of Appellant’s Brief.
