No. 04-13-00569-CR
Kristi Rene NIX,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 198th Judicial District Court, Kerr County, Texas
Trial Court No. B11614
Honorable M. Rex Emerson, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant’s court-appointed attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California,
368 U.S. 738 (1967), asserting there are no meritorious issues to raise on appeal, and has
informed the appellant of her right to file her own pro se brief. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83,
85 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v. State, 924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.
—San Antonio 1996, no pet.). The State has filed a letter waiving its right to file an appellee’s
brief unless appellant files a pro se brief. In an order issued July 22, 2014, this court informed
appellant of her right to request a copy of the record in accordance with Kelly v. State, No. PD-
0702-13, 2014 WL 2865901 (Tex. Crim. App. June 25, 2014). Appellant timely filed a written
request for a copy of the record and a motion for extension of time to file a pro se brief.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that appellant shall be promptly provided with a copy of
the appellate record. It is further ORDERED that appellant’s Motion for Extension is
GRANTED. Appellant’s pro se brief is due within thirty (30) days from the date of this order.
See Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1. If the appellant files a pro se brief, the State may file a
responsive brief no later than thirty (30) days after the date the appellant’s pro se brief is filed in
this court.
