Cody Allen WATERS, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee


From the 437th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2015CR1094
Honorable Lori I. Valenzuela, Judge Presiding

ORDER

On June 1, 2017, Appellant filed a pro se motion to supplement Appellant's brief and a supplemental brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.7; 4TH TEX. APP. (SAN ANTONIO) LOC. R. 8.4 (requiring leave of court to supplement a brief).

Appellant's appellate counsel filed Appellant's Brief on February 22, 2017. Because an appellant is not entitled to hybrid representation on appeal, Appellant's motion is DENIED. See Marshall v. State, 210 S.W.3d 618, 620 n.1 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) (explaining that defendants have no right to hybrid representation on appeal and pro se brief will not be addressed): Ex parte Taylor, 36 S.W.3d 883, 887 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001) (per curiam) ("Appellants are not allowed to have 'hybrid representation' on appeal, in which an appellant and an attorney can present independent points to an appellate court.").
