Texas No. PD-1573-14 Dear Mr. Acosta: The State believes the decision of the court of appeals is correct and that discretionary review should be refused. Therefore, the State waives its right to reply to Appellant’s petition for discretionary review and reserves the right to file a brief on the merits should the Court grant the petition.

Please bring this waiver letter to the attention of the Court, and file it amongst the papers of the above-referenced cause. Thank you for your kind assistance in these matters.
