    Type of motion:          First Motion for Extension of Time to File Appellant’s Brief
    Parties filing motion:   Pro Se Appellant
    Document to be filed:    Appellant’s Brief
    Is appeal accelerated?      No.
    If motion to extend time:
    Original due date:                 December 14, 2015

    Ordered that motion is:
     Granted in part
    If document is to be filed, document due: March 14, 2016.
          No further extensions of time will be granted.
     Denied
     Dismissed (e.g., want of jurisdiction, moot)
     Other: _____________________________________
    Because appellant failed to timely file his brief, which was due by December 14, 2015,
    after the clerk’s record was filed on November 12, 2015, the Clerk of this Court
    notified appellant on December 30, 2015, that his appeal was subject to dismissal
    unless he filed a brief and extension within 10 days of that notice. See TEX. R. APP. P.
    38.6(a)(1), (d). However, because appellant is pro se and seeks time to retain counsel,
    his motion for extension of time to file his brief is granted in part for 90 days, but no
    further extensions will be granted given the length of the extension. See 
    id. 10.5(b)(1)(B), (C).
    Accordingly, if appellant’s brief is not filed by March 14, 2016,
    this appeal may be dismissed without further notice. See 
    id. 38.8(a)(1), 42.3.
    Judge’s signature: /s/ Evelyn V. Keyes
