The State of
Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
June 23, 2015
No. 04-14-00885-CR
Victor Perez PRADO,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 216th Judicial District Court, Gillespie County, Texas
Trial Court No. 5355
Honorable N. Keith Williams, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On June 9, 2015, appellant’s attorney filed a motion to dismiss this appeal; however, the
motion is not signed by appellant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.2(a). On June 15, 2015, a deputy clerk
of this court informed appellant’s attorney that the motion was defective; however, no corrected
motion has been filed. It is therefore ORDERED that the motion is DENIED WITHOUT
PREJUDICE to refiling a motion signed by both appellant and appellant’s attorney. See id.
Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed in this appeal on April 10, 2015. On May
13, 2015, this court issued an order granting appellant a second extension of time to file the brief,
which extended the deadline to file the brief to June 10, 2015. The order stated, “No further
extensions will be granted.” It is therefore ORDERED that appellant’s attorney file a motion to
dismiss in compliance with Rule 44.2(a) or appellant’s brief no later than July 2, 2015. If the
corrected motion or appellant’s brief is not filed by that date, this appeal will be abated to the
trial court for an abandonment hearing, and the trial court will be asked to consider whether
sanctions are appropriate. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2).
