MARK JOHN THEDE, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 296-82447-2012

ORDER The Court REINSTATES the appeal.

On October 24, 2014, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why

appellant’s brief had not been filed. On November 18, 2014, we received appellant’s brief,

together with an extension motion. Therefore, in the interest of expediting the appeal, we

VACATE the October 24, 2014 to the extent it requires findings.

The October 24, 2014 order also required the trial court to prepare and file a certification

of appellant’s right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a), (d); Cortez v. State, 420 S.W.3d 803

(Tex. Crim. App. 2013). We have not yet received the certification Accordingly, we ORDER the trial court to file, within FIFTEEN DAYS of the date of

this order, a completed certification of appellant’s right to appeal that accurately reflects the trial

court proceedings.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the

Honorable John Roach, Jr., Presiding Judge, 296th Judicial District Court; the Collin County

District Clerk; and to counsel all parties.
