RICKY RAMON HUGHES, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 59th Judicial District Court Grayson County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 065922
ORDER
We REINSTATE this appeal.
Because appellant's brief had not been filed despite our granting two extensions of time in which to do so, we abated this appeal for a hearing. On April 10, 2017, appellate counsel filed a motion to withdraw the appeal. In the motion, counsel states that "after a teleconference," appellant stated he did not want to proceed with this appeal.
Because the motion does not comply with rule 42.2 of the rules of appellate procedure, we DENY the motion without prejudice to filing a motion that complies with the rules. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a).
