Opinion
Order entered February 8, 2019
In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-18-00639-CR
JOEL ERCEDES VILLATORO, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 283rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F16-75768-T
ORDER Appellant, who was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child younger than
fourteen years of age, filed his brief January 29, 2019, along with an appendix to the brief.
Documents in the appendix refer to the victim by name. Accordingly, we STRIKE the
appendix.
Because criminal briefs are not required to contain an appendix, see TEX. R. APP. P.
38.1(k), we decline to order that appellant refile his appendix referring to the victim either
generically or by initials only. However, if appellant wishes to refile the appendix, he must do so
without using the victim’s name.
