PRINE Clerk THE STATE OF TEXAS § HOUSTON, TEXAS STATE’S MOTION TO ORDER THE COURT REPORTER FOR THE CERTIFICATION HEARING TO FILE THE RECORD TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FIRST COURT OF APPEALS: The State’s brief is due on Friday, July 10, 2015, on an extended deadline, no further extensions. On June 9, 2015, the State noticed that Appellant’s first point of error asserted factual insufficiency in support of the certification order, but that the record of the certification hearing had not been filed with the Court. The State obtained a copy of the reporter’s record for the lengthy certification hearing from Appellant’s attorney, and asked that the record be filed with this Court. This copy does not have an Exhibits Volume or a copy of the exhibits admitted during the certification hearing at the end of each volume. To date, the reporter’s record of the certification hearing has not been filed with this Court. Appellant’s counsel has informed the undersigned assistant district attorney that he has been in communication with Gail Rolen, Texas CSR 8933, and 1 will follow up with her. The undersigned assistant district attorney has also left a message at the phone number in Ms. Rolen’s signature block, attached hereto. As the reporter’s record of the certification hearing has been prepared, it simply needs to be transmitted to this Court. The exhibit volume, however, may still need to be prepared as it was not forwarded by appellate counsel to the State. WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED. the State asks this Court to issue an order to Gail Rolen, Texas CSR 8933 to file the reporter’s record of the certification hearing on or before Thursday, July 9, 2015.
