Oscar Axcel Duron v. The State of Texas
ORDER Trial court case number: 1507865 Trial court: 176th District Court of Harris County
We previously abated this appeal, remanded the case to the trial court, and directed that court to determine whether appellant's appointed counsel, Brian M. Middleton, should be allowed to withdraw from representing appellant and new counsel should be appointed to represent appellant on appeal. The trial court clerk has filed a supplemental clerk's record that includes the trial court's order appointing Abbie L. Russell to represent appellant on appeal. Accordingly, we REINSTATE the case on the Court's active docket.
The Clerk of this Court is directed to note Abbie L. Russell's appearance as appointed counsel for appellant on the docket of this Court.
No later than 30 days from the date of this order, counsel is directed to (1) file an amended brief on appellant's behalf, or (2) file a motion to adopt the "Analysis of the Appellate Record in Accordance with Anders v. California ," filed in this appeal on January 2, 2019, along with a motion to withdraw that complies with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.5.
If counsel files an amended brief, appellee's brief will be due no later than 30 days from the date the amended brief is filed.
On January 28, 2019, the State filed its "Waiver of Opportunity to Respond to Appellant's Anders Brief."
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Julie Countiss
