EDWIN CORTEZ, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 5 Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 005-86485-2020 and
On Appeal from the 401st Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 401-82900-2020
ORDER
LANA MYERS JUSTICE
Before the Court are appellant's (1) "Motion to Cross-file and/or Supplement Records on Appeal in Connected/Companion Cases," (2) motion to extend time to file a brief in 05-21-00661-CR, and (3) motion to file an amended brief in 05-21-00664-CR.
Because these are companion cases, appellant may refer to or rely on the records in either appeal when briefing his issues. Therefore, we DENY appellant's motion to cross-file and/or supplement the records.
We GRANT the motion to extend time to file the brief and the motion to file an amended brief. We ORDER appellant's brief in 05-21-00661-CR and appellant's amended brief in 05-21-00664-CR filed as of the date of this order.
