JAMES WILLIAM SMITH, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 350th District Court
Taylor County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 10035-D
ORDER
This appeal has been unduly stalled due to the failure of Appellant's retained counsel, Bill Fisher, to file an appellate brief. The brief was originally due on October 31, 2012. On October 30, counsel filed his first motion for extension, which this court granted. On November 21, 2012, counsel filed a second motion for extension, which was also granted and which extended the deadline to December 17, 2012. We have had no further communication from counsel. More than four months have passed since the extended deadline, and counsel has yet to file a brief.
By this order, Bill Fisher is ORDERED to file in this court a brief on behalf of Appellant on or before May 24, 2013.
PER CURIAM Do not publish. See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Panel consists of: Wright, C.J.,
McCall, J., and Willson, J.
