Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas September 26, 2019 Nos. 04-19-00292-CR & 04-19-00293-CR Gerald Edwin HODGES, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court Nos. 2018CR8989 & 2018CR8986 Honorable Jefferson Moore, Judge Presiding

ORDER Appellant’s brief in these consolidated appeals was due September 3, 2019, but it was not filed. The clerk of this court notified appellant’s counsel, Michael Lee Young, of the deficiency by letter on September 9, 2019. The letter required a response by September 19. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2). We have not received a response from counsel and the brief has not been filed.

We therefore order Michael Lee Young to file appellant’s brief by October 7, 2019. If the brief is not filed as ordered, this appeal may be abated for an abandonment hearing and counsel may be ordered to show cause why he should not be held in civil or criminal contempt of this court.
