BRANDEN TRENNELL WATSON, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 194th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F15-75625-M
ORDER
The reporter's record was due June 2, 2016. After abating the appeal for a hearing in the trial court, we adopted the trial court's findings that, due to her backlog, court reporter Belinda Baraka needed an additional 45 days to file the reporter's record. We ordered the reporter's record filed no later than November 4, 2016. To date, the reporter's record has not been filed, nor has Ms. Baraka communicated with this Court.
We ORDER court reporter Belinda Baraka to file the complete reporter's record in this appeal within FOURTEEN DAYS of the date of this order. If the reporter's record is not filed by the date specified, the Court will utilize its available remedies, which may include ordering that Belinda Baraka not sit as a court reporter until she files the reporter's record in this appeal.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to the Honorable Ernest White, Presiding Judge, 194th Judicial District Court; Belinda Baraka, court reporter; and counsel for all parties.
