ORDER
Appellant's court-appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes these appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. Appellant has made known to this Court his desire to review the records and file a pro se brief. See Anders v.California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969).
We GRANT appellant's request, ORDER our opinion issued January 14, 2014, WITHDRAWN, our judgment of that date VACATED, and the appeals REINSTATED.
Accordingly, we hereby direct the Judge of the 228th District Court to afford appellant an opportunity to view the trial record in accordance with local procedure; that the clerk of that court furnish the record to appellant on or before February 28, 2014; that the clerk of that court certify to this court the date on which delivery of the record to appellant is made; and that appellant file his pro se brief with this court within thirty days of that date.
