ORDER The State’s appellee’s brief is due December 19, 2022. On December 2, 2022, the State filed an unopposed motion to consolidate, seeking consolidation of this case with several others and for an extension of time to file its brief. We DENY the motion as to consolidation, but we GRANT the motion as to the extension of time and ORDER the State to file its brief by January 6, 2023. The State may file the same brief in multiple cases, if it so desires, by placing all appellate cause numbers in the style and by filing the brief separately in all cause numbers.

Further requests for extensions of time will be disfavored.
