No. 04-14-00619-CR
Rudy MARTINEZ,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 216th Judicial District Court, Gillespie County, Texas
Trial Court No. 4957
Honorable Stephen B. Ables, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On December 5, 2014, thi s C ourt abated this case to the trial court and ordered the
trial court to conduct a hearing to answer several questions. In addition, this Court ordered the
trial court to file a supplemental clerk’s and reporter’s records, no later than February 19, 2015,
which must include: (1) a transcription of the hearing and copies of any documentary evidence
admitted, (2) written findings of fact and conclusions of law, and (3) recommendations
addressing the above enumerated questions.
On January 20, 2015, this Court reinstated this appeal following receipt of the
supplemental record and the trial court’s findings. Appellant now files a Motion for Extension of
Time to File Appellant’s Brief.
The motion is GRANTED. Appellant’s counsel is ORDERED to file appellant’s brief on
or before March 23, 2015. Because this court was required to abate the appeal for an
abandonment hearing, no further extensions will be allowed. If the brief is not timely filed, this
appeal will be abated to the trial court to conduct an abandonment hearing without further notice,
and the trial court will be asked to determine whether sanctions against appellant’s attorney are
appropriate.
