On Appeal from the Criminal District Court
Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 07-00940
__________________________________________________________________
ORDER
This is an appeal from the denial of a pro se motion for DNA testing. See
Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 64.01-.05 (West 2006 & Supp. 2014). On October
16, 2014, Guillory filed a pro se motion for appointment of appellate counsel. The
statutory right to counsel granted by Article 64.01(c) of the Texas Code of
Criminal Procedure extends to the appeal of an order entered under Chapter 64.
Mindieta v. State, 132 S.W.3d 1 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 2002, order).
It is, therefore, ORDERED that the appeal be abated and the cause be
remanded to the trial court. Upon remand, the trial court shall determine whether
1
Guillory is indigent. If Guillory is indigent, the trial court shall appoint counsel to
represent Guillory on appeal. Any hearings conducted by the trial court pursuant to
this order must be recorded. A reporter’s record of such hearings, together with a
clerk’s record containing any orders and findings entered by the trial court in
connection with this order, shall be filed by November 19, 2014. All appellate
timetables are suspended until the supplemental record here ordered has been filed,
or until further order of this Court.
ORDER ENTERED October 23, 2014.
