On July 31, 2019, the supplemental records were filed. The trial court found appellant desires to prosecute his appeals and appointed counsel had not abandoned the appeals. It is therefore ORDERED that the appeals are REINSTATED on the docket of this court. Appellant’s brief must be filed no later than August 19, 2019.
