Case Information

*1 Order entered August 19, 2015

In The

Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-14-01381-CR

WILLIAM SEDRIC AUTREY, Appellant V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 429-81194-10 ORDER

The Court REINSTATES the appeal.

On July 21, 2015, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why appellant’s brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and represented by court-appointed counsel Stephanie Hudson; and (3) Ms. Hudson has not been getting notices from the Court because she is not listed as

appellant’s counsel.

We note that although appellant has filed many pro se documents, he is not listed as representing himself on appeal. Rather, the Court has William Schultz listed as appellant’s attorney of record because all of the documents before the Court show Mr. Schultz is the *2 attorney. The clerk’s record does not contain an order appointing Ms. Hudson to represent appellant nor has Ms. Hudson filed anything in writing to show she is appellant’s attorney.

Accordingly, we ORDER the trial court to prepare and transmit a written order appointing Stephanie Hudson as appellant’s attorney to this Court within TEN DAYS of the date of this order.

We DIRECT the Clerk to list Stephanie Hudson as appellant’s attorney of record in place of William Schultz.

Appellant’s brief is due within THIRTY DAYS of the date of this order.

We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to the Honorable John Roach, Jr., Presiding Judge, 296th Judicial District Court; Andrea Stroh Thompson, Collin County District Clerk; Stephanie Hudson; and the Collin County District Attorney’s Office.
