ALONZO GRAYSON, JR., Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 296-81500-2012
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On September 12, 2013, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why the reporter's record has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and entitled to proceed without payment for the record; (3) Janet Dugger is the court reporter who recorded the proceedings; and (4) Ms. Dugger's explanation for the delay in filing the record is her workload. We DO NOT ADOPT the finding that the earliest date by which Ms. Dugger can file the reporter's record is December 9, 2013.
We note the reporter's record is already three months overdue. Accordingly, we ORDER Janet Dugger, official court reporter of the 296th Judicial District Court, to file the reporter's record within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order. If the reporter's record is not filed within the time specified, we will order that Janet Dugger not sit as a court reporter until she files the record in this appeal.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the Honorable John Roach, Jr., Presiding Judge, 296th Judicial District Court; Janet Dugger, official court reporter, 296th Judicial District Court; and to counsel for all parties.
