We ORDER the Dallas County District Clerk to file the clerk’s record within FIFTEEN DAYS of the date of this order. The clerk’s record shall contain a copy of the trial court’s certification of appellant’s right to appeal. Because this is an accelerated appeal, no extensions will be granted.

We ORDER Robin Benton, official court reporter of the 292nd Judicial District Court, to file, within FIFTEEN DAYS, the reporter’s record of all hearings related to appellant’s motion to reduce bail. Because this is an accelerated appeal, no extensions will be granted.
