Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas September 22, 2021 No. 04-20-00333-CR Zohair AHMED, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 290th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2017CR2128A The Honorable Jennifer Pena, Judge Presiding ORDER On August 23, 2021, we issued an order striking the appellant’s brief for failure to comply with the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and ordering a compliant Anders brief to be filed within fourteen days. Counsel for appellant filed a response stating that the appellant’s brief is not intended to be an Anders brief because it would prejudice appellant’s ability to pursue federal relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2254. After further consideration, we REINSTATE the appellant’s brief filed on August 19, 2021. The State’s brief, or any waiver, is due thirty (30) days from the date of this order.
