Order entered November 12, 2013

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-13-00306-CR KAREN PATRICIA BOWIE, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 380th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 380-81418-2011 ORDER The Court REINSTATES the appeal.

On October 7, 2013, we denied appellant’s second motion to extend time to file his brief and ordered the trial court to make findings. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and represented by court-appointed counsel William Schultz; (3) Mr. Schultz’s explanation for the delay in filing appellant’s brief is his workload; and (4) Mr. Schultz needs until December 23, 2013 to file appellant’s brief.

We ORDER appellant to file his brief by MONDAY, DECEMBER 23, 2013. We note that appellant’s brief was originally due August 3, 2013 and appellant has already been granted one extension of time to file the brief. Therefore, if appellant’s brief is not filed by the date specified, the Court will order William Schultz removed as appellant’s attorney and will order the trial court to appoint new counsel to represent appellant in this appeal.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the Honorable Benjamin Smith, Presiding Judge, 380th Judicial District Court; William Schultz; and the Collin County District Attorney’s Office.
