Darryn Burgess v. State ( 2016 )

Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
December 8, 2016
No. 04-16-00009-CR
Darryn BURGESS,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 437th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2014CR0646
Honorable Lori I. Valenzuela, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant has filed a pro se supplemental appellant’s brief in this court. The record
reflects that appellant is represented by appointed counsel on appeal. In Texas, appellants do not
have a right to hybrid or dual representation. See Rudd v. State, 616 S.W.2d 623, 625 (Tex.
Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1981) (criminal defendant has no right to represent himself pro se and be
represented by an attorney at the same time); see also Castillo v. State, No. 04-04-00169-CR,
2005 WL 357155, at *2 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Feb. 16, 2005, no pet.) (mem. op., not
designated for publication). Therefore, the pro se supplemental appellant’s brief is STRICKEN.
