We CAUTION Francheska Duffey that if the requested reporter’s records are not filed ON OR BEFORE JANUARY 3, 2014, we will utilize the available remedies to obtain the record, which may include ordering that Francheska Duffey not sit as a court reporter until the complete record is filed in this appeal. We GRANT appellant’s motion for an extension of time to file a brief. Appellant shall file his brief on or before Monday, February 3, 2014. We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order by electronic transmission to Francheska Duffey, appellant, and counsel for appellee. /s/ ELIZABETH LANG-MIERS JUSTICE
