JOEL BLAIR, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 244th District Court Ector County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. C-17-1047-CR
ORDER
Appellant's court-appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Appellant filed a motion requesting to review the record and file a pro se brief. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). The motion is granted.
Accordingly, we hereby direct the Judge of the 244th District Court to afford appellant an opportunity to view the trial record in accordance with local procedure; that the clerk of that court furnish the record to appellant on or before February 14, 2020; that the clerk of that court certify to this court the date on which delivery of the record to appellant is made; and that appellant file his pro se brief with this court within thirty days of that date.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Christopher and Bourliot.
