John Donohue v. State
Opinion
The State of TexasAppellee/s
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas April 24, 2014 No. 04-14-00060-CR John DONOHUE, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2013CR3514 Honorable Raymond Angelini, Judge Presiding ORDER Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice Marialyn Barnard, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Appellant John Donohue filed his appellant’s brief on April 18, 2014. The court finds that appellant has flagrantly violated Rule 38.1 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure by failing to cite to the appellate record. The Rules of Appellate Procedure require that factual and procedural assertions in the statement of the case, statement of facts, and argument of the brief be supported by references to the appellate record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.1(d), (g), (i). Appellant’s brief does not contain any citations to the record.
We therefore order appellant to file an amended brief by May 5, 2014. If the amended brief does not correct the deficiencies listed above, we “may strike the brief, prohibit [appellant] from filing another, and proceed as if [he] had failed to file a brief.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.9(a).
