The Court REINSTATES the appeals.

On November 7, 2013, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why the reporter’s record had not been filed. On December 2, 2013, we received the reporter’s record.

We GRANT the November 21, 2013 motion of Kathleen Walsh to withdraw as counsel.

We DIRECT the Clerk to substitute Michael Mowla as appellant’s attorney of record in place of Kathleen Walsh.

Appellant’s brief is due within thirty days of the date of this order.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to Kathleen Walsh, Michael Mowla, and Michael Casillas.
