On Appeal from the 363rd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. X-13-1459-W
ORDER
Both the clerk’s and reporter’s records in this case are overdue. By postcard dated
October 2, 2014 we notified the Dallas County District Clerk that the clerk’s record in this case
was overdue and directed the district clerk to file the record within thirty days. Having received
no response, by order December 31, 2014 we again notified the Dallas County District Clerk that
the clerk’s record was overdue and ordered the district clerk to file the clerk’s record or written
verification that appellant had not been found indigent and had not paid for the record within ten
days of the date of the order. By postcard dated October 2, 2014, we notified the court reporter
that the reporter’s record was overdue. We directed the Court Reporter to file the record within
thirty days. Thereafter, on January 16, 2015, appellant filed an affidavit of indigency in this
Court. By letter dated January 20, 2015, we referred the affidavit to the trial court. We directed
the Dallas County District Court to inform this Court, by January 30, 2015, in writing if no
contest to the affidavit was filed. To date, neither the clerk’s record nor the reporter’s record
have been filed and we have not received any response from the district court or the court
reporter. In order for this appeal to proceed, the matter of the appellate record must be resolved.
Accordingly, this Court ORDERS the Dallas County Clerk to file the clerk’s record
within TEN DAYS of the date of this order.
We ORDER Darline LaBar, Official Court Reporter for 363rd Judicial District Court, to
file, within TEN DAYS of the date of this order, either (1) the reporter’s record, (2) written
verification that no hearings were recorded, or (3) written verification that appellant has not
requested the reporter’s record. We notify appellant that if we receive verification he has not
requested the reporter’s record, we will order the appeal submitted without the reporter’s
record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c)
