John Francis Walsh III v. State ( 2020 )

Order entered January 21, 2020 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-19-00710-CR JOHN FRANCIS WALSH III, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 2 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F17-75832-H ORDER Appellant, who was convicted of aggravated sexual assault, filed his brief on January 6, 2020. In his brief, appellant identifies the victim by name. This Court does not allow a party to file a brief that discloses the names of victims in aggravated sexual assault cases. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.10(b) (“Unless a court orders otherwise, an electronic or paper filing with the court, including the contents of any appendices, must not contain sensitive data.”). Accordingly, we STRIKE appellant’s brief. We ORDER appellant to file, within TEN DAYS of the date of this order, an amended brief that identifies the victim either generically (for example, “victim”) or by initials only, including when quoting relevant portions of the record, giving a statement of the case, or attaching an appendix. We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to the Honorable Nancy Kennedy, Presiding Judge, Criminal District Court No. 2; Sharita Blacknall and the Dallas County District Attorney. /s/ CORY L.
