Wilfred Joseph Leger v. the State of Texas

Opinion

Order entered February 7, 2023

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas

No. 05-22-00867-CR

WILFRED JOSEPH LEGER, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 1 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F18-20692-H

ORDER

On January 3, 2023, we abated this case for the trial court to make findings

of fact and conclusions of law regarding the voluntariness of appellant’s statement

to law enforcement. On January 13, 2023, we received a supplemental clerk’s

record containing the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law.

Accordingly, we REINSTATE this appeal. The State’s brief is due MARCH 9,

2023. The website of the Dallas County District Clerk shows the trial court signed

the certification of defendant’s right of appeal on January 25, 2023, but the

certification has not yet been filed in this Court. Accordingly, we ORDER Felicia

Pitre, Dallas County District Clerk to file a supplemental clerk’s record containing

the trial court’s certification of defendant’s right of appeal within TEN DAYS of

the date of this order.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to Felicia Pitre, Dallas

County District Clerk, and to counsel for all parties.
