ORDER Trial court case numbers: 1562576 Trial court: 263rd District Court of Harris County
Appellant, Clyde Latrell Gray, has filed a pro se motion to dismiss his appeal. Appellant, however, is represented by counsel in this appeal. Until a motion to withdraw is granted, appointed counsel continues to represent appellant. See In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d 403, 411 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008). And, appellant is not entitled to "hybrid representation," that is, "representation partly by counsel and partly by self." Robinson v. State, 240 S.W.3d 919, 921 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007); Scheanette v. State, 144 S.W.3d 503, 505 n.2 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004). Accordingly, we dismiss appellant's motion.
Appellant and his counsel should confer. If appellant no longer wishes to prosecute his appeal, appellant's counsel should file a motion that complies with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) in the appeal.
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Julie Countiss
