EX PARTE HOWARD HOLLAND


On Appeal from the 422nd Judicial District Court Kaufman County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 29317A-422

ORDER

On January 19, 2018, appellant tendered his brief and a letter to the Clerk. In the letter, appellant states he prepared his brief before receiving the clerk's record, and he requests permission, in the event the Court rejects the brief as "not properly filed," to file an amended brief after he receives the record. The Court construes appellant's letter as a motion.

The Clerk has filed appellant's brief on January 19, 2018. Because this is an accelerated appeal, and recognizing appellant's difficulty in obtaining the record and citing to it, the Court SUSPENDS the requirements of rule of appellate procedure 38.1 requiring appellant's brief to provide record references. See TEX. R. APP. P. 2, 31.2, 38.1.

Appellant's January 19, 2018 motion requesting permission to file an amended brief is DENIED AS MOOT.
