EX PARTE RONY FRANCISCO GIRON-VILLATORO
Do not publish. Tex.R.App.P. 47.2(b).
ON APPEAL FROM THE COUNTY COURT OF MAVERICK COUNTY, TEXAS
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Silva
ORDER OF REINSTATEMENT
PER CURIAM.
Appellant Rony Francisco Giron-Villatoro challenges the trial court's denial of his pre-trial application for writ of habeas corpus. Appellant filed his brief on July 24, 2023. On August 14, 2023, we granted the State's motion to abate the appeal pending the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals' disposition of Ex parte Aparicio, a case which involves substantially similar facts and issues. On August 17, 2023, we ordered all proceedings in the underlying trial court case stayed until further order of this Court.
The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has issued its opinion in Ex parte Aparicio. No. PD-0461-23, 2024 WL 4446598 (Tex. Crim. App. Oct. 9, 2024). Accordingly, we hereby reinstate this appeal. The State's brief shall be due within thirty days after the date of this order. Appellant's reply brief, if any, shall be due within twenty days after the filing of the State's brief. The stay of the underlying trial court proceedings shall remain in effect until further order of this Court.
