Edward Guerra v. The State of Texas


ORDER ON MOTION

Type of motion: Plea in Abatement Party filing motion: Pro Se Appellant Edward Guerra Document to be filed: N/A Ordered that motion is:

[ ] Granted

[ ] Denied

[v] Dismissed (e.g., want of jurisdiction, moot)

[v] Other: __________

On September 22, 2017, appellant's appointed counsel timely filed an Anders brief and a motion to withdraw, which has not been granted pending appellant's January 29, 2018 pro se Anders response deadline. See TEX. R. APP. P. 6.5; Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967). Accordingly, appellant's pro se "Plea in Abatement" is dismissed as moot because he is currently represented by counsel and is not entitled to hybrid representation. See Ex parte Taylor, 36 S.W.3d 883,887 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001) (stating "[a]ppellants are not allowed to have hybrid representation" and appellant did not have right to file documents with appellate court while represented by counsel). Appellant's counsel, Kevin P. Keating, is directed to contact the pro se appellant regarding this plea in abatement.
