PRO SE MOTION FOR EXTENSION
OF TIME TO FILE APPELLANT’S
BRIEF [CIRCUIT COURT OF
INDEPENDENCE COUNTY, CR 2004264, HON. JOHN DAN KEMP, JUDGE]
DALLAS GENE ROY
Appellant
v.
STATE OF ARKANSAS
Appellee
MOTION GRANTED IN PART AND
DENIED IN PART.
PER CURIAM
In 2005, appellant Dallas Gene Roy was found guilty of first-degree murder after a trial to
the bench and sentenced to 402 months’ imprisonment. The Arkansas Court of Appeals affirmed.
Roy v. State, CACR 06-652 (Ark. App. May 2, 2007). Subsequently, through counsel, appellant
timely filed in the trial court a verified petition under Ark. R. Crim. P. 37.1. The trial court denied
the petition and relieved trial counsel from representing appellant. Appellant has lodged a pro se
appeal from the order.
Now before us is appellant’s pro se motion for extension of time to file his brief-in-chief.
As this is his first request for an extension of time, the motion is granted but not for the sixty days
requested by appellant. The time to file the appellant’s brief is extended to thirty days from the date
of this opinion.
Motion granted in part and denied in part.
