SAMNANG HAM, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 354th District Court Hunt County, Texas
Trial Court No. 31386 Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. ORDER

Court reporter Julie Vrooman recorded the trial court proceedings in appellate cause number 06-17-00145-CR, styled Samnang Ham v. The State of Texas, trial court cause number 31386 in the 354th Judicial District Court of Hunt County, Texas. The reporter's record was originally due in this matter September 5, 2017. That deadline was extended twice by this Court on Vrooman's request, resulting in the most recent due date of November 6, 2017. As of the date of this order, Vrooman has filed neither the record nor a third request seeking an additional extension of the filing deadline.

The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure establish that "trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed." TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(c). The Rules further instruct that an "appellate court may enter any order necessary to ensure the timely filing of the appellate record." Id. In furtherance of our responsibilities established by the Rules, we find we must take steps to ensure that the record in this case is filed in a reasonable amount of time.

Therefore, we order Vrooman to file the reporter's record in cause number 06-17-00145-CR, styled, Samnang Ham v. The State of Texas, trial court cause number 31386 in the 354th Judicial District Court of Hunt County, Texas, to be received no later than Wednesday, November 29, 2017.

If the reporter's record is not received by November 29, we warn Vrooman that we may begin contempt proceedings and order her to show cause why she should not be held in contempt of this Court for failing to obey its order.

IT IS SO ORDERED
