Nicholas Alexander Harper v. State

Order filed, December 13, 2019. In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-19-00736-CR ____________ NICHOLAS ALEXANDER HARPER, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 434th Judicial District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 16-DCR-073722A ORDER The reporter’s record in this case was due November 12, 2019. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1. On November 14, 2019, this court granted the court reporters request for extension of time to file the record until December 12, 2019. To date, the record has not been filed with the court. Because the reporter’s record was not filed within the time prescribed in the first request, the court issues the following order. We order Gina Jackson and Rhonda D. Colgin, the court reporters, to file the record in this appeal on or before December 23, 2019. No further extension will be entertained absent exceptional circumstances. The trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c). If Gina Jackson and Rhonda D. Colgin do not timely file their records as ordered, the Court may issue an order directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the record. PER CURIAM Panel Consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Christopher and Bourliot.
