Gary Don Jennings v. State ( 2014 )

Order entered January 6, 2014 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-13-00260-CR GARY DON JENNINGS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 4 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F10-71278-K ORDER The Court REINSTATES this appeal. On October 9, 2013, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding whether the hearing recorded by court reporter Akilah Welborn could be filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) Akilah Welborn recorded the January 22, 2013 adjudication hearing; (2) appellant’s counsel sent Ms. Welborn a request for that record; and (3) the notes are available and can be transcribed. Because Ms. Welborn has not yet tendered the record to this Court, we DO NOT ADOPT the finding that the record would be filed by December 27, 2013. We ORDER court reporter Akilah Welborn to file, by JANUARY 21, 2014, the reporter’s record of the January 22, 2013 adjudication hearing. Because the record is already ten months overdue, we further ORDER that Akilah Welborn not sit as a court reporter until she has filed the reporter’s record of the January 22, 2013 adjudication hearing. We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order, by electronic transmission, to the Honorable Dominique Collins, Presiding Judge, Criminal District Court No. 4; the Dallas County Auditor’s Office, and to counsel for all parties. We ORDER the Clerk to send a copy of this order, by first-class mail, to Akilah Welborn, 6909 Westside Place, Sachse, Texas 75048. /s/ DAVID EVANS JUSTICE
