Robert GARZA, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee


From the 112th Judicial District Court, Sutton County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2388
Honorable Pedro Gomez, Judge Presiding

ORDER

Appellant's court-appointed attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), in which he asserts there are no meritorious issues to raise on appeal. Counsel has informed the appellant of his right to access the appellate record and to file his own brief. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014); see also Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v. State, 924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.). The State has filed a letter waiving its right to file an appellee's brief unless appellant files a pro se brief.

If the appellant desires to file a pro se brief, he must do so within thirty (30) days from the date of this order. If the appellant files a pro se brief, the State may file a responsive brief no later than thirty days after the date the appellant's pro se brief is filed in this court. It is further ORDERED that the motion to withdraw filed by appellant's counsel is HELD IN ABEYANCE pending further order of the court.
