NUMBER 13-20-00321-CR
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
SAUL MARQUEZ GARZA, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
On appeal from the 24th District Court
of Calhoun County, Texas.
ORDER
Before Chief Contreras and Justices Longoria and Tijerina
Order Per Curiam
The cause is before the Court on its own motion. Appellant's counsel filed an
Anders brief, and appellant has been unable to examine the record in order to file a pro
se brief. On November 3, 2020, we ordered the trial court to ensure that appellant has the
opportunity to fully examine the appellate record and 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).
On January 8, 2021 and February 8, 2021, we received letters from the court
reporter along with receipts indicating the reporter’s record was mailed to the appellant.
However, neither mailings were successfully delivered. Therefore, pro se appellant has
not yet had the opportunity to fully examine the appellate record.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED the trial court take any and all action
necessary to ensure appellant has the opportunity to fully examine the appellate record
on or before thirty (30) days from the date of this order. The trial court shall also cause a
supplemental record containing related findings and/or orders, and a supplemental
reporter’s record, if any, to be filed on or before thirty (30) days from the date of this order.
Furthermore, Appellant shall have thirty (30) days from the day the appellate
record is first made available to him to file his pro se brief with this Court. The State shall
have twenty days thereafter to file its response, if any.
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
Delivered and filed on the
8th day of March, 2021.
