The STATE of Texas, Appellee

From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018CR10858 Honorable Jefferson Moore, Judge Presiding

ORDER Appellant’s court-appointed public defender has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 368 U.S. 738 (1967), in which he asserts there are no meritorious issues to raise on appeal.

The State has filed a letter waiving its right to file an appellee’s brief unless the appellant files a pro se brief.

If appellant desires to request the appellate record, he must file the motion requesting the record within ten (10) days of the date of this order. If appellant desires to file a pro se brief, he must do so within twenty (20) days of the date of this order. If appellant files a pro se brief, the State may file a responsive brief no later than twenty (20) days after the date appellant’s pro se brief is filed in this court.
