TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
No. 10-14-00406-CR
No. 10-14-00407-CR
MICHAEL EDWARD STRICKLAND,
Appellant
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS,
Appellee
From the 82nd District Court
Falls County, Texas
Trial Court Nos. 8032 and 8033
ORDER
Appellant’s “Application to Proceed in Forma Pauperis” was filed on July 22,
2015. In his application, he states he is unable to pay in advance for attorney’s fees or
to give security for any filing fees. A determination of indigence in an appellate court in
a criminal proceeding only involves payment for the appellate record. See TEX. R. APP.
P. 20.2. The appellate record has already been filed There are no other court costs
associated with the appeal of a criminal proceeding. Further, payment of attorney’s fees
is not a court “cost” in an appellate proceeding.
Accordingly, appellant’s Application to Proceed in Forma Pauperis is dismissed
as moot.
PER CURIAM

Justice Davis, and
Justice Scoggins
