In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-16-01416-CR No. 05-16-01417-CR SUSAN GAY PRUITT, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 380th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. 380-82407-2014 & 380-82408-2014 ORDER We REINSTATE these appeals.

Because appellant’s brief had not been filed despite two orders granting extensions of time, we abated these appeals for a hearing. On July 28, 2017, we received the trial court’s findings. We ADOPT the trial court’s findings and recommendations that (1) appellant wants to pursue these appeals, (2) appellate counsel Lara Bracamonte is providing effective representation in the appeals and has been diligent in her preparation of a brief, (3) Ms. Bracamonte’s delay is due to her demanding work schedule, and (4) Ms. Bracamonte needs an extension until September 1, 2017.

We ORDER appellant’s brief filed on or before September 1, 2017.
