WAYMON NICHOLAS JORDAN JR., Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 435th District Court Montgomery County, Texas Trial Cause No. 20-02-02178-CR
Before Golemon, C.J., Horton and Wright, JJ.
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Waymon Nicholas Jordan Jr. argues on appeal that his confession was involuntary because the officer did not ask him whether the waiver of his rights was "knowing, intelligently, and voluntarily." When a question is raised as to the voluntariness of a statement of an accused, the trial court must enter an order stating its conclusion as to whether the statement was voluntarily made and make written findings concerning voluntariness. Vasquez v. State, 411 S.W.3d 918, 920 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013).
It is ORDERED that the appeal is abated and the case is remanded to the trial court for entry of an order stating whether the recorded custodial statement was voluntarily made and stating findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding the voluntariness of the appellant's custodial statement. See Tex.R.App.P. 44.4. A supplemental clerk's record containing the trial court's order and findings of fact and conclusions of law are due to be filed in this Court by May 28, 2024. See id. 34.5(c)(2). All appellate timetables are suspended pending filing of the supplemental clerk's record with this Court. The appeal will be reinstated without further order when the supplemental clerk's record is filed with the appellate court.
