RICKEY TRENT STANLEY, JR, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 397th Judicial District Court Grayson County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 062945
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On September 9, 2014, we denied appellant's second motion to extend time to file his brief and ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why the brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and represent by court-appointed counsel Donald Hoover; (3) Mr. Hoover "stated good reasons" for not filing appellant's brief; and (4) appellant's brief is ready to be "resubmitted" to the Court. We note that counsel's explanation was not included in the written findings. Additionally, although it appears from the written findings that the brief has been prepared, counsel has not tendered the brief to the Court.
Accordingly, we ORDER appellant to file his brief within FIFTEEN DAYS of the date of this order. No further extensions will be granted.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to counsel for all parties.
