HONORABLE CLIFFORD BROWN, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER
PER CURIAM
On November 21, 2011, applicant Safiq Karedia filed these two accelerated appeals from the denial of his applications for writ of habeas corpus. The records were complete on February 10, 2012, and the briefs were originally due on March 1, 2012. Karedia's retained counsel requested two extensions of time to file Karedia's briefs, which the Court granted, making the briefs due on May 1, 2012. On May 18, 2012, Karedia's counsel requested a third extension of time to file the briefs.
We grant the motion in part and order Karedia's counsel, Ariel Payan, to file Karedia's briefs on or before June 1, 2012. If the briefs are not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of court. Before Chief Justice Jones, Justices Pemberton and Rose Do Not Publish
