[v] Other: __________
On March 2, 2015, the Clerk of this Court granted appellant's second extension and warned counsel that no further extensions would be granted absent exceptional circumstances. Appellant's motion states that, since the complete record was filed, counsel has been appointed to three felony cases where the prior attorney withdrew after the case was set for trial and counsel has been given a short time to prepare. Thus, appellant's motion is granted, but counsel is warned that no further extensions will be granted. Accordingly, if appellant's brief is not filed by May 4, 2015, the Court may abate this appeal for a hearing. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2).
