After overruling appellant's motion to suppress his oral statements to the police, the trial court did not make the required written findings of fact and conclusions of law. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 38.22, § 6 (West 2005). Appellant has filed a motion to abate the appeal for these findings. See Green v. State, 906 S.W.2d 937, 939-40 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995). The motion is granted.

The appeal is abated. The district court shall prepare and file written findings of fact and conclusions of law conforming to the requirements of article 38.22, section 6. A supplemental clerk's record containing the court's findings and conclusions shall be filed no later than May 23, 2007.
