Appellate case number: 01-19-00061-CV
Trial court case number: 2017-06000J
Trial court: 314th District Court of Harris County
This Court issued an order on May 16, 2019 abating the appeal and remanding for the trial court to hold a hearing to determine whether retained counsel Donnica Blackful had abandoned the appellant and whether appellant was indigent and unable to pay for the reporter’s record outstanding. The trial court held a hearing and appointed new counsel for appellant. Appointed counsel Donald Crane has made an appearance. The Court’s order also requested a determination whether appellant was indigent, but the trial court indicated in the hearing record that it had no information upon which to determine indigence as no Statement of Inability to Afford Court Costs had been filed. The appeal is ordered reinstated on the active docket. Appellant is ordered to file within 5 days of the date of this order the attached form Statement of Inability in the trial court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 145(a). Appellant shall see that a supplemental clerk’s record with the Statement of Inability and any trial court order concerning indigence is filed with this Court within 10 days of the date of this order. It is so ORDERED.
