STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 372nd District Court

Tarrant County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1117237R

O R D E R

On April 14, 2011, this court affirmed the judgment of the trial court. On April 25, appellant’s court-appointed attorney of record filed in this court a motion to withdraw and substitute counsel. In support of the motion, counsel avers that he is now employed with the Tarrant County Criminal District Attorney’s Office and is prohibited from any further representation of appellant, including advising him regarding the filing of a motion for rehearing or a petition for discretionary review. Counsel requests that we instruct the trial court to appoint new counsel and that we extend the procedural time limits for the benefit of appellant and his new counsel. The State has no objection to the motion. The motion is granted.

The trial court is directed to appoint new counsel to represent appellant, and the trial court clerk is instructed to file in this court on or before May 20, 2011, a supplemental clerk’s record evidencing such appointment. Appellant’s motion for rehearing is now due for filing on or before June 10, 2011.
