Juan David BERNAL, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


From the Criminal District Court 3, Tarrant County, Texas

Trial Court No. 1297786D

The Honorable Robb Catalano, Judge Presiding


ORDER

Appellant's brief was due January 29, 2014, but was not filed. This court notified appellant's counsel of the deficiency by letter on February 6, 2014, and required a response by February 18. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2). Counsel has not responded to the notice.

We order appellant's attorney, Richard Alley, to file the appellant's brief by March 7, 2014. Counsel is advised that any request for an extension of time must (1) show extraordinary circumstances that prevent the timely filing of the brief, (2) advise the court of the efforts counsel has expended in preparing the brief, and (3) provide the court reasonable assurance that the brief will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline. If the brief or a conforming motion is not filed by the date ordered, the court may abate this appeal and remand the case to the trial court for a hearing to determine whether appellant or his counsel has abandoned the appeal.
