LEONEL HERNANDEZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, State.
Appeal from the 168 District Court of El Paso County, Texas (TC# 20160D03827) ORDER
The Court has received a motion to abate this appeal pending the filing of certain supplemental reporter's records volumes. Appellant states that the abatement is needed so that he may review the supplemental reporter's record volumes—which relate to a motion to suppress hearing that had not been included in the original record—for possible inclusion in his brief.
Appellant's brief is currently due April 20, 2020. The supplemental reporter's record volume is due April 24, 2020. Rather than grant an indefinite abatement, we will instead treat this as a motion for extension of time to file the Appellant's Brief. We grant Appellant an extension of 30 days in which to file the brief. In the event that the supplemental reporter's record volumes are not filed timely, or for other just cause, the Court will exercise its discretion to entertain further brief extension requests if such requests are warranted under the circumstances.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 15 day of April, 2020.
PER CURIAM Before Alley, C.J., Rodriguez and Palafox, JJ.
