TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-12-00478-CR
Ex parte Theodoro Quinones
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF HAYS COUNTY, 22ND JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. CR-12-0101-HC, HONORABLE WILLIAM HENRY, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Appellant filed a notice of appeal stating he wished to appeal from the trial
court’s interlocutory orders related to his Motion to Reduce Bond. The clerk’s record was filed on
July 12, 2012, and the reporter’s record was filed on October 8, 2012. Appellant’s retained attorney,
W. Paul Parash, made several attempts to file a brief electronically, but the briefs were rejected
because they were untimely, lacked a correct motion for extension of time, and had various errors
of form. On December 4, two weeks after Mr. Parash’s last unsuccessful attempt to file the brief
and a motion for extension of time, we sent him notice that the brief was overdue, requesting a
response by December 14. To date, Mr. Paresh has not responded to our communication, nor has
he filed a corrected brief and motion for extension of time.
We therefore order Mr. Parash to file a brief and motion for extension of time that
fully comply with the rules of appellate procedure and, if electronically filed, the rules governing
electronic filing no later than May 3, 2013. If appellant has decided he no longer wishes to pursue
this appeal, Mr. Parash should file a motion to dismiss no later than May 3, 2013. Failure to comply
with this order will result in Mr. Parash being called before this Court to show cause why he should
not be held in contempt for violating this order.
It is ordered April 23, 2013.
