Gene Phillip ROMERO, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee


From the 144th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2016CR8782
Honorable Lorina I. Rummel, Judge Presiding

ORDER

Appellant has filed a third motion for extension of time to file the appellant's brief. We grant the motion and order appellant's counsel, Dean A. Diachin, to file the appellant's brief by December 18, 2017. Counsel is advised that no further extensions of time will be granted absent a timely motion that (1) demonstrates extraordinary circumstances justifying further delay, (2) advises the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. The court does not generally consider a heavy work schedule to be an extraordinary circumstance. If the brief is not filed by the date ordered, the court may abate this appeal and remand this case to the trial court for an abandonment hearing.
