Pending before the Court is a motion to withdraw filed by Appellant’s retained attorney
to withdraw from the case due to non-payment of his fee, and a motion to declare Appellant
indigent for purposes of appeal. We previously granted a motion filed by Appellant’s attorney
asking that the case be remanded to the trial court for a hearing to determine whether Appellant
wished to prosecute the appeal. Our order requires the trial court to determine whether Appellant
is entitled to the appointment of counsel on appeal. No action will be taken on counsel’s motion
to withdraw or the motion for appointment of counsel until after the trial court has conducted the
hearing and filed the findings of fact and conclusions of law as directed in our order dated June
28, 2017.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 21st day of July, 2017.
