On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4 Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 004-83825-2020

ORDER

ROBERT D. BURNS, III CHIEF JUSTICE

Before the Court is the trial court's findings concerning appellant's indigency and whether he is entitled to appointed counsel on appeal. The trial court found that appellant is not indigent and he is not entitled to appointed counsel. The court admonished appellant on the dangers of self-representation. The court found appellant "is able to competently and intelligently represent himself." The court also found appellant "desired to be represented by counsel but claims to be unable to afford one."

This Court accepts the trial court's findings. Appellant is pro se on appeal until counsel appears for appellant.

The reporter's record was originally due January 28, 2024. We directed the court reporter to file the reporter's record by March 4, 2024.

We ORDER court reporter Denise Condran to file on or before MARCH 26, 2024, the reporter's record or written verification that appellant has not requested the reporter's record or has not paid or made payment arrangements for the reporter's record.

Appellant's brief is due 30 DAYS after the reporter's record is filed.
