JOHN HENRY WILSON, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F12-55608-S
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On September 13, 2013, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why appellant's brief had not been filed. On September 17, 2013, we received appellant's brief, together with an extension motion. Therefore, in the interest of expediting the appeal, we VACATE the September 13, 2013 order requiring findings.
We GRANT the September 17, 2013 extension motion and ORDER appellant's brief filed as of the date of this order.
In his brief, appellant raises an issue related to the costs assessed against him. The record, however, does not contain a cost bill or other document with an itemized list of costs assessed in this case.
Accordingly, we ORDER the Dallas County District Clerk to file, within FIFTEEN DAYS of the date of this order, a supplemental clerk's record containing a detailed itemization of the costs assessed in this case, including but not limited to, specific court costs, fees, and court appointed attorney fees. In accordance with Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 103.001, the cost bill shall be signed by the officer who charged the cost or the officer who is entitled to receive payment for the cost. We further ORDER that the supplemental clerk's record include a document explaining any and all abbreviations used to designate a particular fee, cost, or court appointed attorney fee.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to Gary Fitzsimmons, Dallas County District Clerk; Dallas County District Clerk's Office, Criminal Records Division; and to counsel for all parties.
