In The
Court of Appeals
Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
No. 06-15-00148-CR
MICHAEL PAUL HENDRIX, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 5th District Court
Cass County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2014-F-00198
Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ.
ORDER
Appellant Michael Paul Hendrix was convicted of injury to a child and sentenced to sixty-
five years’ imprisonment. Hendrix’ court-appointed appellate counsel, Butch Dunbar, filed an
Anders1 brief on October 12, 2016. On October 21, 2016, Hendrix filed his pro se motion for
access to the record. Accordingly, in accord with Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 321–22 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2014), we are required to enter an order specifying the procedure to be followed to
ensure Hendrix’ access to the record. This order is entered for the purpose of satisfying our duties
as detailed in Kelly. See id.
Dunbar has advised this Court that he has maintained a copy of the reporter’s record in
Hendrix’ case and that he will provide a copy of the reporter’s record to Hendrix. Because Dunbar
does not have a copy of the clerk’s record, this Court will provide a copy of that record to Hendrix.
Dunbar is ordered to report to this Court, in writing, when the reporter’s record has been made
available to Hendrix. Once we receive that notification and are satisfied that Hendrix has likewise
received the clerk’s record, this Court will set a firm deadline for Hendrix to file his pro se response
to Dunbar’s Anders brief.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
