Michael Lawrence Reising v. State ( 2017 )

Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
May 3, 2017
No. 04-17-00191-CR
Michael Lawrence REISING,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 25th Judicial District Court, Guadalupe County, Texas
Trial Court No. 15-1601-CR-B
Honorable William Old, Judge Presiding
ORDER
It appears from the record that appellant seeks to appeal the denial of his motion to
reduce bail. Appellate courts lack jurisdiction to consider an interlocutory appeal of trial court’s
denial of a pretrial motion for bond reduction. Ragston v. State, 424 S.W.3d 49, 51-51 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2014). In addition, the clerk’s record does not contain a motion to reduce bail or the
trial court’s order denying a motion to reduce bail.
It is therefore ORDERED that appellant show cause in writing on or before May 19, 2017
why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All appeal deadlines are
suspended pending our determination whether we have jurisdiction over this appeal.
