Order issued September 6, 2012 In The tourt of Appeals 1J1ifth, 1.Bistrict of IDexas at 1.Ballas No. 05-11-01266-CR LASHUDRA ADAMS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 292nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. FOS-53315-V ORDER The clerk's record in this case contains the grand jury's indictment. However, the record shows the trial court granted the State's motion to amend the indictment and physically amended the indictment by interlineation. The clerk's record does not contain the amended indictment and both parties have represented the amended indictment is not in the record. The report's record shows, and the parties agree on, the substance of the amended indictment. However, because the rules require the clerk's record to contain a copy of the indictment, pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 34.5(e), we ORDER the trial court to determine what constitutes an accurate copy of the amended indictment. We further ORDER the trial court, within twenty-one (21) days ofthe date of this order, to transmit a supplemental record consisting of a supplemental clerk's record containing its findings of fact, and if it determines the record can be supplemented with the amended indictment, a supplemental clerk's record containing a copy of the amended indictment. The appeal is ABATED to allow the trial court to comply with this order. It shall be reinstated twenty-one days from the date of this order or when the supplemental record is received, whichever is earlier. -2-
