The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (Appellant) requests a 30-day extension to file its opening brief in the appeal case No. 03-15-00044-CV, currently due on April 27, 2015. If granted, the new deadline would be May 27, 2015. The extension request is unopposed and follows one prior 30-day extension. The Appellant's new lead counsel has significant other workloads preventing timely completion of the brief. Specifically, counsel is engaged in oral argument preparations for Veasey v. Abbott in the Fifth Circuit, with arguments scheduled for April 28, 2015, and must also submit a response for Ivy v. Williams by April 23, 2015. The motion is filed in accordance with Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 10.5(b) and 38.6. The document includes a certificate of conference confirming the motion is not opposed and a certificate of service indicating that counsel for Appellees has been notified.
