The trial court held a hearing as ordered; it filed a supplemental clerk’s record containing findings of fact and conclusions of law. The court reporter filed a supplemental reporter’s record of the hearing. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(3). The trial court found that (1) Appellant wishes to prosecute her appeal, (2) Appellant is indigent, and (3) court-appointed trial and appellate attorney Deborah Stanton Burke asked the court to appoint someone other than herself to serve as counsel on appeal. The trial court appointed Michael Raign as appellate counsel. We REINSTATE this appeal on this court’s docket. We ORDER Appellant’s court- appointed counsel Michael Raign to file Appellant’s brief with this court within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order. _________________________________ Patricia O.
