MATEO FABIAN GOMEZ GARZA, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
On appeal from the 93rd District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas.
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Silva
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Before the Court is pro se appellant's motion to access the appellate record. On May 28, 2021, appellant's counsel filed an Anders brief, and appellant has been unable to examine the record in order to file a pro se brief.
Accordingly, we GRANT appellant's motion and it is hereby ORDERED that the trial court ensure that appellant has the opportunity to fully examine the appellate record on or before fifteen (15) days from the date this order issues. It is FURTHER ORDERED the trial court notify this Court as to the date upon which the appellate record was made available to appellant. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
Furthermore, Appellant shall have thirty (30) days from the day the appellate record is first made available to him to file his pro se brief with this Court. The State shall have twenty days thereafter to file its response, if any.
