Taylor-JM v. State






IN THE

TENTH COURT OF APPEALS


No. 10-96-141-CR


     JEFFORY MARK TAYLOR,

                                                                                              Appellant

     v.


     THE STATE OF TEXAS,

                                                                                              Appellee


From the 54th District Court

McLennan County, Texas

Trial Court # 91-359-C

                                                                                                    


OPINION ABATING APPEAL

ON TAYLOR'S MOTION

TO CORRECT THE STATEMENT OF FACTS

                                                                                                    


      On June 28, 1991, Jeffory Taylor pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance and the court assessed the agreed punishment of seven years incarceration, probated for seven years, and a $750 fine. However, finding that Taylor failed to abide by the terms and conditions of his probation, the court revoked the probation and sentenced Taylor to the original seven-year punishment term. In this appeal from the revocation order, Taylor claims that the statement of facts does not accurately disclose what occurred in the trial court. Specifically, Taylor claims that a portion of the testimony by his probation officer was not included in the statement of facts filed in this cause. Because resolution of his complaint involves a fact question, we abate this appeal and remand the cause to the trial court for a hearing. Tex. R. App. P. 55(a).

      The trial court shall, after notice to the parties, hold a hearing to settle the dispute and, if necessary, make the statement of facts conform to what occurred in the trial court. Id. The court shall cause its findings and conclusions to be certified and transmitted to this court as a supplemental record within thirty days of this order. If anything material to either party is omitted from the statement of facts, we may direct that a supplemental record be certified and transmitted to us supplying such omitted matter. Id. 55(b). However, depending on the volume of corrections, if any, the court finds should be made to the statement of facts, we may instead order amended volumes be filed to replace those volumes already on file rather than accepting numerous supplemental corrections.
