Felipe MENDOZA III, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee
From the 452nd District Court, Kimble County, Texas Trial Court No. 2023-DCR-1468 Honorable Robert Rey Hofmann, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Lori Massey Brissette, Justice
After we granted Appellant's first motion for extension of time in part, Appellant's brief was due on October 25, 2024. Before the once-extended due date, Appellant filed a motion for extension of time to file the brief.
Appellant's motion is GRANTED. We ORDER Appellant to file the brief not later than November 25, 2024. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.6(d).
No further extensions of time to file Appellant's brief will be granted absent extraordinary circumstances. Heavy trial and appellate caseloads, without more, are not extraordinary circumstances. See McIlhargey v. Hager, No. 13-21-00288-CV, 2022 WL 1251061, at *3 (Tex. App.-Corpus Christi-Edinburg Apr. 28, 2022, pet. denied) (mem. op.); Hubbard v. State, 649 S.W.2d 167, 169 (Tex. App.-Dallas 1983, no pet.).
