Order entered February 18, 2020

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-19-00946-CR JAMES FORBIT, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 204th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F18-52005-Q ORDER We REINSTATE this appeal.

We abated for a hearing on why appellant’s brief has not been filed. On January 29, 2020, the supplemental clerk’s record was filed. We ADOPT the trial court’s findings that (1) appellant wishes to prosecute this appeal; (2) appellant, who is indigent, is represented by appointed counsel J. Daniel Oliphant; and (3) counsel has not abandoned the appeal but needs additional time to file his brief.

We ORDER appellant’s brief filed on or before March 30, 2020. We caution appellant that the failure to file a brief by that date will result in the Court taking whatever remedies it has to ensure this appeal proceeds in a more timely manner.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to the Honorable Tammy Kemp, Presiding Judge, 204th Judicial District Court; to J. Daniel Oliphant; and to the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office, Appellate Division.
