    Eberto A. MENDEZ,
    Appellant
    v.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS,
    Appellee
    From the 175th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
    Trial Court No. 2009CR2760
    Honorable Mary D. Roman, Judge Presiding
    ORDER
    On April 13, 2015, appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed a brief pursuant to Anders v.
    California, 
    368 U.S. 738
     (1967), in which he asserts there are no meritorious issues to raise on
    appeal. Counsel has informed the appellant of his right to file his own brief and obtain a copy of
    the record. Nichols v. State, 
    954 S.W.2d 83
    , 85 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns
    v. State, 
    924 S.W.2d 176
    , 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.). Counsel provided
    appellant with an “Appellant’s Motion for Pro Se Access to the Appellate Record.” On April 13,
    2015, the State filed a letter waiving its right to file an appellee’s brief unless the appellant files a
    pro se brief.
    Appellant has not requested a copy of the appellate record. If the appellant desires to file
    a pro se brief, he must do so no later than June 26, 2015. See Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1. If
    the appellant files a pro se brief, the State may file a responsive brief no later than thirty days
    after the date the appellant’s pro se brief is filed in this court. It is further ORDERED that the
    motion to withdraw, filed by appellant’s counsel, is HELD IN ABEYANCE pending further
    order of the court.
    We further ORDER the clerk of this court to serve a copy of this order on appellant,
    appellant’s counsel, the attorney for the State, and the clerk of the trial court.
