Antwon Carter v. State

Opinion

Order entered September 4, 2015

In The

Court of Appeals

Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-14-00822-CR

ANTWON CARTER, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 296-81511-2013

ORDER

The Court REINSTATES the appeal.

On September 1, 2015, we ordered that Stephanie Hudson be removed as appellant’s attorney and that the trial court appoint new counsel to represent appellant on this appeal. On September 2, 2015, we received the trial court’s order appointing Pamela Lakatos as appellant’s new attorney.

We DIRECT the Clerk to list Pamela Lakatos as appellant’s attorney of record.

We note that the trial court also made a finding that Ms. Lakatos should be given sixty days to file appellant’s brief. We ORDER appellant to file his brief within SIXTY DAYS of the date of this order. Because this appeal was filed more than one year ago and appellant’s brief is already five months overdue from its original due date, no further extensions will be granted.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to Pamela Lakatos and the Collin County District Attorney’s Office.
