THE STATE OF TEXAS § APPEALS OF TEXAS Clerk
MOTION TO ORDER A SUPPLEMENTAL REPORTER’S RECORD
TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF SAID COURT:
Now comes the State of Texas, Appellee in the above-styled and -numbered
cause, and moves the Court to order the preparation, certification and filing of a
supplemental reporter’s record for good cause would show the following:
I.
Appellant was convicted by a jury of Tampering with Physical Evidence on
August 11, 2014 in the 207th District Court of Comal County. The jury then
sentenced Appellant to 35 years confinement in the institutional division of the
Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Appellant timely filed his notice of appeal
and requested that the Reporter submit a record containing all exhibits. The State’s
brief is due by July 3, 2015, and will be filed before the deadline.
II.
Mr. Clayten Hearrell is handling this appeal for the State. During further
review of the record while writing the State’s brief, Mr. Hearrell noticed that the
copy of State’s Exhibit 73 he obtained from the Court Reporter omitted part of the
1
video which was entered into evidence. Whereas the full version of State’s Exhibit
73 – which the District Clerk has in its possession – is 25 minutes and 58 seconds
long, the version on file with the Third Court is apparently only five minutes and
12 seconds long. The State has need of and intends to cite to portions of the full
video which were omitted from the shorter version on file with the Third Court.1
Accordingly, under rule 34.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, the
State has requested that the Reporter prepare, certify and file the full version of
State’s Exhibit 73 in a supplemental reporter’s record. Request, attached.
III.
Out of an abundance of caution, the State moves this Honorable Court to
order the preparation, certification and filing of said supplemental record. Because
the Court will not likely hear or decide the instant motion until 10 days after the
motion is filed, in the event said supplemental record has already been submitted to
the Court, the State alternatively moves the Court to accept the filing of said
supplemental record into the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 10.3, 34.6(d).
IV.
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, the State’s counsel
respectfully prays that this Honorable Court order the preparation, certification and
filing of a supplemental record containing the full version (25 minutes and 58
1
Because the State’s brief will be filed before the deadline on July 3, 2015, it will cite to video
times in the anticipated supplemental record.
2
seconds) of State’s Exhibit 73, or in the alternative, that it allow the filing of said
supplemental record into the record on appeal if it has already been submitted to
the Court when the instant motion is heard and decided.
Respectfully submitted,

RE UEST TO FILE SUPPLEMENTAL REPORTER'S RECO
TO THE HONORABLE REPORTER OF SAID COURT:
Now comes the State of Texas, by and through its Assistant District
Attorney, and requests pursuant to rule 34.6(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure that the Court Reporter prepare, certify, and file in the Court of Appeals
for the Third District of Texas- in Appellate Cause Number 03-14-00570-CR- a
supplemental Reporter's Record containing the following items:
a) The full and complete video entered into evidence as State's Exhibit
73 in CR2012-225, totaling approximately 25 minutes and 58
seconds. 1
b) This State's Request to File Supplemental Reporter's Record.
Because the Defendant/Appellant is indigent, the record is to be prepared at
taxpayer expense.
1
While the District Clerk appears to have the full version (25 minutes and 58 seconds long) on
file, the version of State's Exhibit 73 currently on file with the Third Court of Appeals appears to
contain only a portion of the exhibit (around five minutes and 12 seconds long).
