Order entered November 9, 2018

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-18-01246-CR JOHNATHAN COOPER, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 297th District Court Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1031532D ORDER Before the Court is appellant’s November 5, 2018 pro se motion for abatement.

Appellant asks the Court to abate his appeal so that he may be bench warranted to the trial court so that he may “physically speak” to appellate counsel regarding his appellate rights. Appellant also expresses dissatisfaction with the performance of appointed counsel.

Because appellant is represented by counsel, he is not entitled to hybrid representation.

See Rudd v. State, 616 S.W.2d 623, 625 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1981).

Accordingly, appellant’s motion is DENIED.
