Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-21-00068-CR

EX PARTE HEATHER MARIE RYAN

From the 443rd District Court Ellis County, Texas Trial Court No. 21-015

ABATEMENT ORDER

Appellant Heather Marie Ryan appeals the trial court’s order denying her request

for a reduction in bail. By letter dated August 2, 2021, the Court directed Appellant to

file a brief within ten (10) days. Appellant was admonished that a failure to timely

comply would result in the case being abated to the trial court to conduct a hearing to

determine why no brief has been filed and whether she still desired to prosecute this

appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2). More than ten (10) days have passed, and Appellant

has not filed a brief or otherwise responded.

It is therefore ordered that this appeal is abated to the 443rd Judicial District Court

in Ellis County, Texas for the trial court to hold a hearing pursuant to Rule 38.8(b)(2). The

trial court shall hold the hearing within twenty (20) days. The court reporter shall complete and file a record with this Court within ten (10) days after the hearing

concludes.
