NUMBER 13-19-00626-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG JOSE LUIS GARCIA JR., Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.

On Appeal from the 398th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas.

ORDER Before Justices Benavides, Longoria, and Tijerina Order Per Curiam This cause is before the Court on appellant's third motion for extension of time to file the brief. Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed on June 3, 2020, and appellant was previously granted two extensions.

The Court, having fully examined and considered appellant's third motion for extension of time to file the brief and the extensions previously granted in this cause, is of the opinion that, in the interest of justice, appellant's third motion for extension of time to file the brief should be granted with order. The Court looks with disfavor upon the delay caused by counsel's failure to have filed a brief in this matter and further motions for extension of time will not be granted absent exigent circumstances.

Appellant's third motion for extension of time to file the brief is hereby GRANTED in part and DENIED in part, and the Honorable O. Rene Flores, counsel for appellant, is hereby ORDERED to file the appellate brief with this Court on or before February 1, 2021.

PER CURIAM Do not publish.

TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the 23rd day of December, 2020.
