ORDER

On June 2, 2017, appellant timely filed his pro se notices of appeal. We ORDER the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine whether appellant is entitled to court-appointed counsel in these appeals. If the trial court finds that appellant is entitled to court-appointed counsel, we ORDER the trial court to appoint an attorney to represent appellant in the appeals. If the trial court finds that appellant is not entitled to court-appointed counsel, the trial court shall determine whether appellant will retain counsel to represent him in the appeals and, if so, the name, State Bar number, and contact information for retained counsel.

We ORDER the trial court to transmit a record of the hearing, including findings of fact, any orders, and any supporting documentation, to this Court within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order. We further ORDER that the supplemental clerk's record contain the trial court's completed certification of appellant's right to appeal in each case. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a), (d).

We ABATE the appeals to allow the trial court to comply with the order. The appeals will be reinstated thirty days from the date of this order or when the findings are received, whichever is earlier.
