ARTHUR ALAN MONTROSS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 232nd District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1435999
ORDER
Appellant is represented by appointed counsel, Thomas Martin. Appellant's brief was originally due September 20, 2017. We granted extensions of time to file appellant's brief until December 22, 2017. When we granted the last extension, we noted that no further extensions would be granted absent exceptional circumstances. No brief was filed. On December 20, 2017, counsel filed a further request for extension of time to file appellant's brief. To date, counsel has submitted no brief. We grant the request in part and issue the following order.
Accordingly, we order Thomas Martin to file a brief with the clerk of this court on or before January 22, 2018. If Thomas Martin does not timely file the brief as ordered, the court may issue an order requiring appointment of new counsel.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Christopher, Donovan, and Jewell.
