COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON ORDER Appellate case name: In re Commitment John Palmer Appellate case number: 01-20-00588-CV Trial court case number: 1584989 Trial court: 183rd District Court of Harris County Appellant, John Palmer, filed a notice of appeal for the June 30, 2020 order for an initial commitment pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 46B.073. On December 14, 2020, he filed a motion to supplement the clerk’s record.

The order from which appellant appeals indicates he is represented by court-appointed trial counsel. Unless and until appellant’s counsel withdraws from the present case, appellant’s pro se motions present nothing for our review. Neither a civil nor a criminal defendant is entitled to hybrid representation. TEX. R. CIV. P. 7; Posner v. Dallas Cty. Child Welfare Unit of Tex. Dep’t of Human Servs., 784 S.W.2d 585, 588 (Tex. App.—Eastland 1990, writ denied); Patrick v. State, 906 S.W.2d 481, 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995).

Appellant, however, is entitled to supplement the clerk’s record without an order from this Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5(c)(1).

Accordingly, appellant’s motion is denied.

It is so ORDERED.
