Thomas Leonard, Appellant, v. The State of Texas, State.
Appeal from the 120 District Court of El Paso County, Texas (TC# 20110D02415) ORDER
The State has filed a motion to dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction on the ground that Appellant did not timely file his notice of appeal. Appellant was provided an opportunity to file a response, but he has instead filed a motion asking that the deadline for filing his response be extended to thirty days after the supplemental record is filed. The Court grants Appellant's request for additional time to file his response to the State's motion to dismiss, but Appellant's response is due to be filed no later than May 15, 2017.
Further, the Court gives Appellant notice of its intent to dismiss this appeal as moot because the Court issued its opinion and judgment on April 26, 2017 affirming Appellant's convictions in cause number 08-14-139-CR. Appellant's response to the Court's notice of intent to dismiss, if any, is due to be filed no later than May 15, 2017. The Court will not consider any further requests for an extension of time in which to respond to the State's motion to dismiss or the Court's notice of intent to dismiss the appeal as moot.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 4 day of May, 2017.
PER CURIAM Before McClure, C.J., Rodriguez and Palafox, JJ.
