In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-13-01712-CR
LARRY DUNN, JR., Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 194th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F-1259904-M
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On April 22, 2014, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why the
reporter’s record has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to
pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and is represented by court-appointed counsel Lori
Ordiway; (3) Ms. Ordiway timely requested preparation of the record; (4) Belinda Baraka is the
court reporter who recorded the proceedings; (5) Ms. Baraka’s explanation for the delay in filing
the record is her workload; and (6) Ms. Baraka requested until June 30, 2014 to file the reporter’s
record.
We ORDER Belinda Baraka, official court reporter of the 194th Judicial District Court
to file the complete record, including all exhibits, by JUNE 30, 2014. Because the record is
already nearly three months overdue, no further extensions will be granted. If the record is not
filed by the date specified, the Court will utilize the available remedies to obtain the record,
including ordering that Belinda Baraka not sit as a court reporter until the record is filed in this
appeal.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the
Honorable Ernest White, Presiding Judge, 194th Judicial District Court; Belinda Baraka, official
court reporter, 194th Judicial District Court; and to counsel for all parties.
