Motion Denied and Order filed January 5, 2017.

In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-16-00365-CR ____________ TYRONE MONTGOMERY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 248th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1476841

ORDER Appellant is represented by appointed counsel, Patricia Sedita. Appellant’s brief was originally due August 29, 2016. We have granted a total of 101 days to file appellant’s brief until December 8, 2016. When we granted the last extension, we noted that no further extensions would be granted. No brief was filed. On December 27, 2016, counsel filed a further request for extension of time to file appellant’s brief.

We deny the request for extension and issue the following order.

Accordingly, we order Patricia Sedita to file a brief with the clerk of this court on or before January 17, 2017. If counsel does not timely file appellant’s brief as ordered, the court will issue an order abating the appeal and directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the brief and the consideration of sanctions, appointment of new counsel, or other appropriate relief.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Boyce, Busby, and Wise.
