Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas December 9, 2020 No. 04-19-00889-CR Cameron Antoine ROBY, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 226th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018CR6809 The Honorable Velia J. Meza, Judge Presiding ORDER Appellant’s brief was originally due to be filed on March 19, 2020. On July 31, 2020, we abated this case for an abandonment hearing. On August 27, 2020, we reinstated this case after the trial court had appointed new appellate counsel. On October 5, 2020, we received notice that newly appointed counsel had died; consequently, the trial court appointed another counsel, Patrick Ballantyne, to represent appellant. On October 18, 2020, Mr. Ballantyne requested a sixty-day extension of time to review the record and file a brief. We granted the request and ordered appellant’s brief due on December 4, 2020. To date, appellant’s brief has not been filed. Therefore, appellant’s attorney, Mr. Ballantyne, is ORDERED to respond to this court in writing by December 14, 2020. The response should state a reasonable explanation for failing to timely file the brief and demonstrate the steps being taken to remedy the deficiency. If Mr. Ballantyne fails to file an adequate response within seven days, this appeal will be abated to the trial court for an abandonment hearing, and the trial court will be asked to consider whether sanctions are appropriate. TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(2). _________________________________ Rebeca C.
