Emilio Rene Martinez v. State

The State of TexasAppellee/s Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas January 16, 2015 No. 04-14-00652-CR Emilio Rene MARTINEZ, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee From the 229th Judicial District Court, Duval County, Texas Trial Court No. 13-CRD-90 Honorable Ana Lisa Garza, Judge Presiding O R D E R Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Jason Pulliam, Justice Appellant has filed a motion requesting this court to order that certain original exhibits admitted at trial be filed in this court as part of the appellate record. The reporter’s record merely identifies the exhibits (magazines and DVDs) and does not include copies of them. Appellant contends the original exhibits are necessary in order for this court to review the trial court’s decision to admit them into evidence and to determine whether their admission caused reversible harm. We grant the motion. Pursuant to rule 34.6(g)(2) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we order Richard M. Barton, the Duval County District Clerk to forward to this court the original State’s Exhibits 8 through 29. We further order that on receipt of the original exhibits by this court, the Clerk of this court immediately place the original exhibits under seal. _________________________________ Luz Elena D.
