1 See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.02.

2 See TEX. TRANSP. CODE ANN. § 550.021. The reporter’s record was due January 31, 2022, but was not filed. The Court has been

notified that the reporter, Krista Hodges, passed away on January 16, 2022. Under these

unfortunate circumstances, we abate the appeal and remand the cause to the trial court

to arrange for the appointment of a deputy reporter to complete the record, if possible.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 13.5, 35.3(c), 37.3(a)(2). The name, address, telephone number,

and email address of the deputy reporter shall be provided by order of the trial court and

included in a supplemental clerk’s record to be filed with this Court by March 16, 2022.

The reporter’s record shall be filed with this Court within thirty days of the date of

appointment of the deputy reporter. Should further time be needed to perform these

tasks, then same may be requested.

It is so ordered.
