COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE
FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON
ORDER ON MOTION
Cause number: 01-17-00464-CR
Style: Edward Guerra v. The State of Texas
Date motion filed*: November 20, 2017
Type of motion: Petition for Disclosure of Grand Jury Proceedings and Testimony
Party filing motion: Pro Se Appellant Edward Guerra
Document to be filed: N/A
Ordered that motion is:
Granted
Denied
Dismissed (e.g., want of jurisdiction, moot)
Other: _____________________________________
On September 22, 2017, appellant’s appointed counsel timely filed an Anders brief and
a motion to withdraw, which has not been granted pending appellant’s January 17,
2018 pro se Anders response deadline. See TEX. R. APP. P. 6.5; Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967). Accordingly, appellant’s pro se “Petition for Disclosure of
Grand Jury Proceedings and Testimony” is dismissed as moot because he is currently
represented by counsel, is not entitled to hybrid representation, and he has received
the appellate records. See Ex parte Taylor, 36 S.W.3d 8 8 3 , 887 (Tex. Crim. App.
2001) (stating “[a]ppellants are not allowed to have hybrid representation” and
appellant did not have right to file documents with appellate court while represented
by counsel). Appellant’s counsel, Kevin P. Keating, is directed to contact the pro se
appellant regarding this request.
