Richard Lares v. State

The State of Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas July 17, 2015 No. 04-15-00183-CR Richard LARES, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 399th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2006CR10110 Honorable Juanita A. Vasquez-Gardner, Judge Presiding ORDER After Appellant filed a pro se motion to stay judgment and conviction, on July 2, 2015, we denied the motion because Appellant is represented in this appeal by court-appointed counsel. After his counsel filed an Anders brief and a motion to withdraw, Appellant filed a motion to reconsider our denial of his motion to stay judgment and conviction. Appellant is still represented by counsel. See In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d 403, 411 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008) (noting court-appointed counsel’s duties continue until, inter alia, the motion to withdraw has been granted). Appellant does not have a right to hybrid representation. See Ex parte Taylor, 36 S.W.3d 883, 887 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001). Appellant’s pro se motion to reconsider our July 2, 2015 order is DENIED. _________________________________ Patricia O.
