Appellate case number: 01-12-00627-CR

Trial court case number: 48070F

Trial court: County Court at Law No. 2 of Wichita County

This case was abated and remanded to the trial court on September 24, 2013. In the abatement order, we directed the trial court to determine whether appellant wished to pursue the appeal, and, if so, to determine whether or not appellant’s trial counsel, Holly Gail Crampton, intended to abandon the appeal. In response, appellant filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. Appellant and the State now have filed a “Joint Motion to Lift Stay in Order to Take Up the Pending Motion to Dismiss Appeal,” requesting that the Court lift the abatement and reinstate the appeal in order to determine appellant’s pending motion to dismiss his appeal. We grant the joint motion to lift stay and REINSTATE this case on the Court’s active docket.

It is so ORDERED.
