Dan William REYNOLDS III, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


From the 198th Judicial District Court, Kerr County, Texas

Trial Court No. B12185

Honorable M. Rex Emerson, Judge Presiding


ORDER

Appellant's brief was originally due June 5, 2013. Appellant's appointed counsel, Mr. M. Patrick Maguire, has been granted two extensions of time in which to file appellant's brief, the latest until August 5, 2013. On August 5, 2013, Mr. Maguire requested a third extension of time until September 4, 2013. The motion is GRANTED, and it is ORDERED that Mr. Maguire file appellant's brief no later than September 4, 2013. NO FURTHER EXTENSIONS WILL BE GRANTED.

If counsel does not file a brief by September 4, 2013, this cause will be abated for the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine whether: (1) appellant desires to prosecute his appeal; (2) appellant is indigent, and if so, the trial court shall take such measures as may be necessary to assure the effective assistance of counsel, which may include the appointment of new counsel; and (3) counsel has abandoned the appeal. Because sanctions may be necessary, the trial court will be asked to address this issue even if new counsel is retained or substituted before the date of the hearing. The clerk of this court shall cause a copy of this order to be served on Mr. Maguire by certified mail, return receipt requested, and by regular United States mail.
