Orlando Garcia v. State

Opinion

In The

Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-17-00305-CR ____________________

ORLANDO GARCIA, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee _______________________________________________________ ______________

On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 15-22133 ________________________________________________________ _____________

ORDER

Counsel of record for Orlando Garcia filed a motion for leave to withdraw as

counsel and to order the trial court to appoint new counsel on appeal. The motion

presents good cause to permit counsel to withdraw. Because counsel was appointed

by the trial court, the case must be remanded to that court for appointment of new

counsel.

It is, therefore, ORDERED that the appeal is abated and the case is remanded

to the trial court for the purpose of appointing new counsel to represent the appellant.

1 All appellate timetables are suspended pending resolution of this matter in the trial

court. A supplemental clerk’s record containing any orders and findings made by the

trial court pursuant to this Order shall be filed with the Court of Appeals by January

5, 2018.

ORDER ENTERED December 6, 2017.

PER CURIAM

Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Johnson, JJ.
