MARK LOPEZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
Do not publish. Tex.R.App.P. 47.2(b).
On appeal from the 105th District Court of Kleberg County, Texas.
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Silva and Peña
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Before the Court is appellant's pro se motion for access to appellate record and motion for extension of time to file pro se response. On October 27, 2023, appellant's counsel filed an Anders brief. Pro se appellant has been unable to examine the record in order to file a pro se response.
Accordingly, we grant appellant's motions, and it is hereby ordered that the trial court ensure that appellant has the opportunity to fully examine the clerk's record and reporter's record on or before fifteen (15) days from the date this order issues. It is further ordered that the trial court notify this Court as to the date upon which the clerk's record and reporter's record was made available to appellant. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
Furthermore, pro se appellant shall have thirty (30) days from the day the clerk's record and the reporter's record is first made available to him to file his pro se response with this Court. The State shall have twenty (20) days thereafter to file its response, if any.
