ORDER
Appellant's brief was originally due on February 8, 2018. We abated this appeal and remanded it to the trial court for an abandonment hearing. The trial court found the previous court-appointed counsel has abandoned the appeal, and on July 5, 2018, the trial court appointed the Bexar County Public Defender's office to represent Appellant. On July 20, 2018, Appellant's new counsel filed a motion for extension of time to file the brief.
We REINSTATE the appellate timetable in this appeal. Appellant's motion is GRANTED. Appellant's brief is due on August 20, 2018.
