RICARDO STEPHEN RIVAS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F15-53020-S, F15-53021-S

ORDER

The Court REINSTATES the appeals.

In his first issue, appellant complains the trial court erred by not making written findings of fact and conclusions of law upon appellant's request. The trial court must make findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding its ruling on a motion to suppress at the request of the non-prevailing party. See State v. Cullen, 195 S.W.3d 696, 698-99 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). Therefore, on October 30, 2015, we ordered the trial court to make findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding its ruling on appellant's motion to suppress. We have now received supplemental clerk's records with the trial court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.

Accordingly, we ORDER appellant to file, within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order, either an amended brief addressing the findings and conclusions or written waiver of further briefing. If appellant does not file either an amended brief or waiver within the thirty-day period, the appeal will proceed on the brief already filed.

The State's brief is due within sixty days of the date of this order.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to counsel for all parties.
