Appellant was convicted of burglary of a habitation in cause number 48,046-A in the 188th
District Court of Gregg County. Appellant was sentenced to confinement for 40 years. The court
of appeals affirmed the judgment of the trial court. Barnes v. State, No. 06-19-00045-CR (Tex. App.
— Texarcana, delivered September 25, 2019). The State’s petition for discretionary review was
granted by this Court on December 11, 2019. Appellant is entitled to representation before this Court
at this time. See Article 1.051(a)(d)(2), V.A.C.C.P. Appellant is without representation in this
Court. Accordingly, the trial court is ordered to determine if Appellant is currently represented by
counsel, and if so, to inform this court who represents Appellant. If Appellant is not currently
represented by counsel and desires counsel, the trial court must first determine whether Appellant
is indigent. If the trial court finds Appellant is indigent, that court shall appoint an attorney to
represent Appellant before this court in regard to PDR No. PD-1072-19, in accord with the
provisions of Articles 1.051 and 26.04, V.A.C.C.P. Any hearing conducted pursuant to this order
shall be held within 30 days of the date of this order. The trial court's order appointing counsel, any
findings of fact, affidavits, or transcription of the court reporter's notes and any other
supplementation of the record shall be returned to this court within 45 days of the date of this order.
