Christopher Gutierrez v. The State of Texas
ORDER Trial court case number: 1316546 Trial court: 339th District Court of Harris County
This case was abated and remanded to the trial court for the trial court to determine whether appellant wishes to prosecute this appeal, to determine whether appellant's counsel had abandoned the appeal, and, if counsel had not abandoned the appeal, to inquire of counsel why appellant's brief has not yet been filed and to set a date certain when appellant's counsel must file appellant's brief. Appellant's counsel, Norman Silverman, filed a motion to reinstate on April 4, 2017 and appellant's brief on April 14, 2017. Accordingly, we grant appellant's motion and REINSTATE this case on the Court's active docket.
We direct the Clerk of the Court to reflect that Normal Silverman remains appellant's counsel of record.
The State's brief, if any, is ORDERED to be filed by May 15, 2017. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(b). Judge's signature: /s/ Chief Justice Sherry Radack
