Counsel has informed the appellant of her right to file her own brief and provided appellant with
a form motion for requesting the appellate record. See Kelly v. State, , 436 S.W.3d 313, 319-20
(Tex. Crim. App. 2014); Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no
pet.); Bruns v. State, 924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.); see also
In re R.R., No. 04-03-00096-CV, 2003 WL 21157944, at * 4 (Tex. App.—San Antonio May 21,
2003, no pet.) (mem. op.) (applying Anders procedure in appeal from termination of parental
rights).

        If the appellant desires to request the appellate record, she must file the motion requesting
the record within ten days from the date of this order. If appellant desires to file a pro se brief,
she must do so within twenty days from the date of this order. See Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1.
If the appellant files a pro se brief, the State may file a responsive brief no later than twenty days
after the date the appellant’s pro se brief is filed in this court. It is further ORDERED that the
motion to withdraw, filed by appellant’s counsel, is HELD IN ABEYANCE pending further
order of the court.
