Appellant
v.
STATE OF ARKANSAS
Appellee
October 1, 2009
PRO SE MOTIONS FOR EXTENSION
OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S
BRIEF [CIRCUIT COURT OF
OUACHITA COUNTY, CR 2006-141,
HON. CAROL C. ANTHONY, JUDGE]
MOTIONS GRANTED.
PER CURIAM
In 2006, a jury found appellant Michael D. Dunlap guilty of possession of a controlled
substance with intent to deliver and possession of drug paraphernalia and sentenced him to an
aggregate term of 480 months’ imprisonment in the Arkansas Department of Correction. The
Arkansas Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment. Dunlap v. State, CACR 07-452 (Ark. App. Nov.
28, 2007). Appellant timely filed a pro se petition for postconviction relief under Arkansas Rule of
Criminal Procedure 37.1 that was denied. He has lodged an appeal of that order in this court and
has now filed two motions, each requesting an extension of an additional forty-five days in which
to file his brief. Appellant avers that he has experienced delays in his research as a result of his
incarceration. Since filing the motions, appellant has tendered his brief.
Appellant’s requests for an extension of time to file the appellant’s brief are the first such
requests by appellant in this appeal. We grant the motions. Because appellant has tendered his brief
and we grant the extension, we direct our clerk to file the brief as of the date of this opinion.
