EX PARTE FABIAN GARCIA
On appeal from the 206th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas.
ORDER TO FILE APPELLATE BRIEF
Before Justices Contreras, Benavides, and Longoria
Order Per Curiam
This cause is currently before the Court on appellant's third motion for extension of time to file the brief. The reporter's record was filed on October 21, 2016, and appellant's brief was originally due to be filed thirty days thereafter. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(a). This Court has previously granted appellant two extensions of time totaling 137 days to file the brief, and appellant now seeks an additional 40 days, until May 17, 2017, to file the brief.
The Court GRANTS appellant's third motion for extension to file the brief and ORDERS the Honorable Joseph A. Connors III to file the brief on or before May 17, 2017. The Court looks with disfavor on the delay caused by counsel's failure to timely file a brief in this matter. No further extensions will be granted absent exigent circumstances.
PER CURIAM Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Delivered and filed the 13th day of April, 2017.
