In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-13-00405-CR
SRIHARI AVULA, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 380th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 296-80285-2012
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On March 21, 2014, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why
appellant’s brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to
pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is not indigent and is represented by retained counsel; and (3)
counsel’s explanation for the delay in filing appellant’s brief is he was ill. Because the Court has
not yet received appellant’s brief, we DO NOT ADOPT the findings that it would be filed by
April 23, 2014.
We ORDER appellant to file his brief by MAY 2, 2014. No further extensions will be
granted. If appellant’s brief is not filed by the date specified, we will, without further notice,
submit the appeal without appellant’s brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(4).
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the
Honorable Benjamin Smith, Presiding Judge, 296th Judicial District Court; and to counsel for all
parties.
