Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-13-00559-CR
SHELLY RENEE TIMMS, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 380th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 380-80962-2011
ORDER
The reporter’s record is overdue in this appeal. On July 29, 2013, we received a copy of
a letter sent by appellant’s counsel to court reporter LaTresta Ginyard showing payment in the
amount of $2537 for the reporter’s record. Nevertheless, to date, we have not received the
reporter’s record nor has any court reporter sought an extension of time to file the record.
Accordingly, the Court ORDERS the trial court to make findings of fact regarding why
the reporter’s record has not been filed. In this regard, the trial court shall specifically determine
the following:
• The name of every court reporter who recorded proceedings in the case.
• Whether the notes of the hearings are available and can be transcribed.
• If the notes are available and can be transcribed, the date by which the complete record
will be filed.
• If the notes are not available or cannot be transcribed, whether appellant is at fault for the
loss or destruction of the notes and whether the parties can agree on a substituted record.
We ORDER the trial court to transmit a supplemental record, containing the written
findings of fact, any supporting documentation, and any orders, to this Court within THIRTY
DAYS of the date of this order.
The appeal is ABATED to allow the trial court to comply with this order. It shall be
reinstated thirty days from the date of this order or when the supplemental record is received,
whichever is earlier.
