#### Eugene JOHNSON, Jr., Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

No. 01-95-0707-CR.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Houston (1st Dist.)

May 21, 1996.

Randy McDonald, Houston, for Appellant.

John B. Holmes, Jr., Houston, for Appel-lee.

Before COHEN, O’CONNOR and WILSON, JJ.

ORDER TO APPEAR

PER CURIAM.

Because of court reporter Phyllis Faykus-Dutton’s failure, after six extensions of time, to file a complete statement of facts in this ease, on May 1, 1996, we ordered her to “prepare and file with this Court no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, May 20, 1996, a complete statement of facts in the case styled The State of Texas v. Eugene Johnson, Jr., in the 338th District Court of Harris County, Texas, cause number 9424774, appeal number 01-95-0707-CR.” We also ordered that, should Ms. Faykus-Dutton not comply with the order to prepare and file with this Court no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, May 20, 1996, a complete statement of facts, she is ordered to appear before this Court at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 21, 1996, and show cause why she should not be held in contempt of this Court for her failure to comply with the order.

*751On May 20, 1996, we received an uncerti-fied copy of the statement of facts from Ms. Faykus-Dutton. Our May 1, 1996, order mandated that a complete “statement of facts” be filed; we made no provision in the order that an uncertified copy would suffice. What Ms. Faykus-Dutton tendered is not sufficient. *See*Tex.R.App.P. 53(f) (stating that “[t]he statement of facts shall be in sufficient form to be filed in the appellate court *when it is certified by the official court reported’)*(emphasis added).

On May 21, 1996, the attorney for appellant examined the uncertified copy of the statement of facts and stated to the justices in open court that it is a complete copy. Ms. Faykus-Dutton did not appear in court. Our bailiff called Ms. Faykus-Dutton’s name in the hall three times; Ms. Faykus-Dutton did not respond. Neither appellant’s attorney nor this Court knows the location of the original of the statement of facts or why Ms. Faykus-Dutton tendered an uncertified copy.

This Court’s patience is exhausted. We hereby ORDER Phyllis Faykus-Dutton *to personally appear before this Court at 1:30 p.m. on Monday, June 3, 1996,*and tender to the justices in open court a complete *certified*statement of facts in the case styled The State of Texas v. Eugene Johnson, Jr., in the 338th District Court of Harris County, Texas, cause number 9424774, appeal number 01-95-0707-CR. Should Ms. Faykus-Dutton fail to personally appear before this Court at 1:30 p.m. on Monday, June 3, 1996, and tender to the justices in open court a complete certified statement of facts, she is ordered to personally appear before this Court on Monday, June 3,1996, to instead show cause why she should not be held in contempt of this Court for her failure to comply with this order.

We hereby grant appellant an extension of time to file the statement of facts to June 3, 1996.

It is so ORDERED.

June 3, 1996.
