Gary Martins v. State ( 2014 )

Order filed, December 03, 2014. In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-14-00688-CR ____________ GARY MARTINS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 176th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1371501 ORDER The reporter’s record in this case was due October 14, 2014. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1. On October 20, 2014, Gail Rolen filed a motion for extension of time to file the reporter's record which was granted until November 14, 2014. On November 18, 2014, she filed a second motion for extension of time to file the reporter's record which was granted until December 01, 2014, with the notation that no further extension would be granted absent exceptional circumstances. The court has not received a request to extend time for filing the record. The record has not been filed with the court. Because the reporter’s record has not been filed timely, we issue the following order. We order Gail Rolen, the substitute court reporter, to file the record in this appeal within 30 days of the date of this order. No further extension will be entertained absent exceptional circumstances. The trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c). If does not timely file the record as ordered, we will issue an order directing the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine the reason for the failure to file the record.
