Antonio Torres v. State

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas December 27, 2016 No. 04-16-00622-CR Antonio TORRES, Appellant v. The State of TEXAS, Appellee From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2014CR0934 Honorable Jefferson Moore, Judge Presiding ORDER On December 16, 2016, appellant filed a pro se motion for extension of time in which to file his appellant’s brief. Appellant is represented on appeal by Patrick Barry Montgomery. In Texas, appellants do not have the right to hybrid representation. See Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995). The absence of a right to hybrid representation means appellant’s pro se motion will be treated as presenting nothing for this court’s consideration. Id. Accordingly, the motion is DENIED, and appellant is encouraged to refrain from filing further pro se motions. _________________________________ Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said court on this 27th day of December, 2016. ___________________________________ Keith E.
