ARTIS RAY DURDEN, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 276th District Court Marion County, Texas Trial Court No. F 14886

Before Morriss, C.J., Stevens and van Cleef, JJ.

ORDER Appellant Artis Ray Durden appeals from his conviction of assault on a public servant.

On May 5, 2022, Durden’s court-appointed appellate counsel filed an Anders1 brief in this matter, and on May 13, 2022, Durden filed a pro se motion for access to the appellate record for purposes of preparing a response to his counsel’s Anders brief. Durden’s motion for access to the appellate record is granted. Under Kelly v. State,2 we are now required to enter an order specifying the procedure to be followed to ensure Durden’s access to the record.

On May 23, 2022, this Court forwarded a paper copy of the appellate record, along with this order, to Durden. Allowing fifteen days from the date of this order for the record to be delivered to Durden and giving Durden thirty days to prepare his pro se response, we hereby set July 7, 2022, as the deadline for Durden to file his pro se response to his counsel’s Anders brief.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
