NUMBER 13-17-00635-CR
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
JOSE JAIME RODRIGUEZ, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
On appeal from the 92nd District Court
of Hidalgo County, Texas.
ORDER OF ABATEMENT
Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Longoria and Hinojosa
Order Per Curiam
Currently pending before the Court is appellant's amended motion for pro se
access to the appellate record and amended motion for extension of time to file a pro se
brief. Appellant's counsel has filed an Anders brief herein and appellant has been unable
to examine the record so that he can file a pro se brief.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the trial court ensure that appellant has
the opportunity to fully examine the appellate record on or before November 26, 2018,
and it is FURTHER ORDERED that the trial court notify this Court as to the date upon
which the appellate record was made available to appellant. See Kelly v. State, 436
S.W.3d 313 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
Appellant is requesting an extension of 120 days to file his pro se brief. The Court
GRANTS IN PART and DENIES IN PART appellant's amended motion for extension of
time to file pro se brief. This motion is GRANTED insofar as the Court will extend
appellant's deadline to file his brief until 60 days from the day the appellate record was
first made available to him to file his pro se brief with this Court. This motion is DENIED
insofar as the Court will not allow an extension of 120 days. The State shall have 20
days thereafter to file its response, if any.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
Delivered and filed the
13th day of November, 2018.
