On Appeal from the 203rd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F13-60209-P, F13-60595-P, F13-60931-P
ORDER
The Court REINSTATES the appeal.
On October 13, 2015, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding whether a
second hearing was conducted on March 16, 2015 and, if so, whether the record can be
supplemented with that record. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) the trial court presided over a
second hearing on March 16, 2015 at which appellant formally entered his guilty pleas to the
charged offenses; (2) the March 16, 2015 hearing was recorded; (3) Winnie Lacy is the court
reporter who recorded the proceedings; (4) the notes of the hearing are available; and (5) the
reporter’s record of the March 16, 2015 plea hearing will be filed within ten days of the October
19, 2015.
We ORDER court reporter Winnie Lacy to file, by NOVEMBER 6, 2015, the reporter’s
record of the March 16, 2015 plea hearing, including all exhibits admitted into evidence during
the hearing.
We ORDER appellant to file, by DECEMBER 7, 2015, an amended brief either
addressing the issue already presented in context of the March 16, 2015 second hearing or raising
additional issues. The State’s amended brief will be due thirty days after appellant’s amended
brief is filed.
We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to Winnie Lacy, official court
reporter, Auxiliary Court No. 5, and to counsel for all parties.
