Antoine Ladale Taylor v. State

Opinion

Order entered May 9, 2013

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-12-01410-CR

ANTOINE LADALE TAYLOR, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 3 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F11-61645-J

ORDER The Court REINSTATES the appeals.

On April 23, 2013, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why appellant’s

brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the

appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and represented by court-appointed counsel Nanette

Hendrickson; (3) Ms. Hendrickson’s explanation for the delay in filing appellant’s brief was a

death in her family; and (4) Ms. Hendrickson requested thirty days from the May 7, 2013 hearing

to file appellant’s brief.

We ORDER appellant to file his brief by JUNE 6, 2013. Because the brief is already

more than two months overdue, no further extensions will be granted. We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to

counsel for all parties.
