  MOTION TO ABATE APPEAL FOR THE TRIAL COURT TO ENTER
    FINDINGS OF FACT AND CONCLUSIONS OF LAW AND FOR
           COMPLETION OF APPELLATE RECORD

      Comes now, Brian Suniga, Appellant, by and through counsel and files this

Motion to Abate Appeal for the Trial Court to Enter Findings of Fact and

Conclusions of Law and for Completion of Appellate Record, pursuant to TEX.

CODE CRIM. PROC. Art. 33.07, TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5 (c)(1) and 34.6(d), and Cullen

v. State, 195 S.W.3d 696, 699 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006), in support whereof

Appellant states the following:

      Appellant was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death in the

140th Judicial District Court, Lubbock County, Texas, the Honorable Jim B.

Darnell presiding, Case # 2012-434,109. Appellant filed a designation of the

record on June 27, 2014, of which a copy is attached as Exhibit A. Appellant’s

                                        1
brief is currently due to be filed in this Court on May 1, 2015, the Clerk’s Record

having been filed on September 19, 2014, and the Reporter’s Record having been

filed on April 1, 2015.   Upon a preliminary review of the record, it has come to

counsel’s notice that there are omissions from both the Clerk’s Record and the

Reporter’s Record which must be remedied before the Appellant’s Opening Brief

can be prepared:

a)    Counsel for Mr. Suniga at trial argued a Motion to Suppress based on the
      Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution. 28 RR 12-19. No
      copy of that Motion as filed is present in the record, although it is
      mentioned during the hearing on the Motion to Suppress. 28 RR 12.1

b)    After the denial of the Motion to Suppress, the trial court was asked by
      counsel for Mr. Suniga to prepare Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.
      32 RR 9. The court indicated that it would do so, and stated that the
      Findings and Conclusions would be filed after the conclusion of the case.
      32 RR 12. No Findings and Conclusions are included in the Clerk’s Record
      despite trial counsel’s request.

c)    It is clear from the record that at least one note was sent out by the jury
      during deliberations. 35 RR 44 (reference by court reporter to “First Jury
      Note.”). However, no jury notes are contained in the Clerk’s Record.

d)    Defense counsel at trial filed two motions for a change of venue, which
      appear at 3 CR 1849-58 and 3 CR 1958-85. There were two CD-ROM
      exhibits to the first motion, Exhibits C & D, and one to the second motion,
      Exhibit F. None of those CD-ROM exhibits have been provided as part of
      the appellate record.

      1
       The Clerk of Court was unable to locate a copy of that Motion, but one has
now been produced by the Office of the District Attorney, and the trial court has
already instructed that it be used to supplement the record.
                                         2
e)     Pursuant to TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5, the Clerk must include in the appellate
       record a copy of the trial court’s docket sheet. However, the docket sheet
       contained in the Clerk’s Record gives little more than the style of the case,
       but has no actual entries concerning filings, hearings or other activity in the
       case. 1 CR 8. Upon inquiry by Appellant’s counsel as to whether there was
       in fact a complete docket sheet, counsel was provided only with a
       computerized “Case Summary” which is incomplete - for example, a pretrial
       hearing of November 15, 2013, for which there is a transcript volume
       (Volume 2 of the Reporter’s Record) is not entered on that summary. In
       fact, no entries at all appear from August 22, 2013 to March 11, 2014,
       despite the fact that jury selection in this capital case began at the end of
       March 2014. On examining the “Case Summary,” which is attached as
       Exhibit B, it is clear that some hearings have not been transcribed, even
       though the Designation of Record sought “all hearings before the Court.”
       For example, there are entries in the Case Summary indicating that hearings
       were held on September 28, 2012; November 30, 2012; August 2, 2013;
       August 6, 2013; September 23, 2013 and December 5, 2013, well as
       possible hearings on April 26, 2012 and August 9, 2012.2 There may be
       other hearings that have not been transcribed but, because of the lack of a
       complete docket sheet, it is currently impossible to tell.3

f)     No record has been provided of some specific proceedings. For example,
       there is no transcript of the initial jury call and taking of juror excuses.
       According to trial counsel, with whom undersigned counsel has conferred,
       there was also a hearing concerning an attempt by Appellant to discharge
       trial counsel, with whom Appellant was dissatisfied. That hearing may have
       been conducted in chambers. No record has been provided of either of

       2
        These two dates are listed as “Plea Negotation Conf” (sic) and it is unclear whether they
were in fact hearings or court-mandated discussions between the parties.
       3
          Undersigned counsel has inquired of the court reporter whether there are remaining
untranscribed hearings. The court reporter has inspected a daily log that he keeps, and states that
he has not found any untranscribed hearings. However, the court reporter states he does not keep
a list of all hearings in a specific case, and it therefore appears possible that bringing a complete
list of specific hearing dates to his notice will ensure that all hearings have in fact been
transcribed. Undersigned counsel has also requested the time sheets of counsel for Mr. Suniga at
trial in order to ensure that all hearing dates in this case can be identified.

                                                  3
      those hearings.

g)    Furthermore, inspection of the recently-provided “Case Summary” shows
      entries revealing that there were letters - of which no description is given -
      filed in the case but not contained in the Clerk’s Record, as well as many
      sealed documents, motions and orders, which are not reflected in the
      existing Clerk’s Record in any way.

      With regard to sealed matters, there are two areas where undersigned

counsel requires access to the material in question:

      First, defense counsel at trial filed numerous motions and documents under

seal and obtained orders, which were also filed under seal. Those filings have

only recently come to undersigned counsel’s notice, since their very existence is

not apparent at all from the existing incomplete Clerk’s Record. Undersigned

counsel requests the provision of copies of those filings, with the originals to

continue to be kept under seal. Without these copies, it cannot be ascertained

whether any matter pertaining to them should be raised on appeal, in which case

an appropriate motion for unsealing can be filed. In the event that any of the

filings in question were made by the State, undersigned counsel requests that she

be so notified by the clerk, so that she can, if necessary, move for the unsealing of

the items in question or for them to be provided to counsel on a confidential basis.

      Second, the juror information cards and questionnaires in this capital case

have not been included in the appellate record as they are protected from public

                                          4
disclosure under TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. Art. 35.29. Article 35.29 makes no

specific provision for the supply of that information to appellate counsel, although

it does do so with regard to successor counsel in Art. 11.071 proceedings.

Nonetheless, such juror information may be pertinent to, e.g., a comparison of

jurors for the purpose of a Batson v. Kentucky, 476 U.S. 79, 86 (1986) issue, see,

e.g., Bess v. State, 2013 Tex. Crim. App. Unpub. LEXIS 334 (Tex. Crim. App.

2013)(not designated for publication)(comparative juror analysis compares the

response of a truck panel member to the responses of other panelists with similar

characteristics who were not struck). That information would also be relevant in

ascertaining the degree of prejudice caused by the improper introduction of

evidence that would be of particular relevance to a particular juror because of their

background or sensibilities. Undersigned counsel therefore requests copies of the

juror information cards and questionnaires in this case, to be maintained by

counsel as confidential until and unless public disclosure is sought, if relevant to

the issues in this case.

             LEGAL PRINCIPLES CONCERNING PROVISION
                      OF APPELLATE RECORD.

      As explained above, it is apparent that the record of this case is far from

complete. Even the basic requirement under TEX. R. APP. P. 34.5 of providing a

                                          5
docket sheet has not been complied with; see also TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. Art.

33.07 (creating duty for trial court clerk to keep a record of each criminal action

and the dates of the proceedings therein).

      The importance of the appellate record in a criminal case, particularly a

capital case where an Appellant’s life is at stake, is well-established. In Griffin v.

Illinois, 351 U.S. 12 (1956) the Supreme Court held that an indigent criminal

defendant has a right to the provision of the transcript of his trial, rooted in the

Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment. The

right to a transcript when faced with “devastatingly adverse action” by the State

was re-affirmed in M.L.B. v. S.L.J., 519 U.S. 102, 117 (1996) (petitioner entitled to

free transcript in case concerning termination of parental rights).

      This motion is also based on Appellant’s rights to due process, equal

protection, and effective assistance of appellate counsel in view of the heightened

Eighth Amendment reliability requirements in capital cases. Gilmore v. Taylor,

508 U.S. 333, 342 (1993); Woodson v. North Carolina, 428 U.S. 280, 305 (1976).

See also Monge v. California, 524 U.S. 721, 732 (1998)(“acute need” for

reliability in capital sentencing proceedings); accord Deck v. Missouri, 544 U.S.

622, 632-33 (2005).

                                           6
      Moreover, recently the right of an incarcerated individual to full access to

the courts in order to vindicate violations of fundamental rights was discussed by

this Court, in holding that an indigent inmate’s access to his trial transcript must

not be impeded. In re Bonilla, 424 S.W.3d 528, 533 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014)

(indigent inmate had clear right to access to information about cost of obtaining

trial transcript, which was required by “unequivocal, well-settled, and clearly

controlling legal principles”).

      It is not only the inmate’s right to have the record in his case, but also

counsel’s duty to ensure that a complete record is before the court, since the

appealing party must present the appellate tribunal with the record necessary to

establish a right to relief. Newman v. State, 331 S.W.3d 447 (Tex. Crim. App.

2011)(appellant who presented no record of a hearing concerning his speedy trial

claim should have lost in court of appeals). Moreover, the duty of counsel in a

capital case to ensure that the official record of the proceedings is complete is one

explicitly imposed by the State Bar of Texas: Guidelines and Standards for Texas

Capital Counsel, Texas Bar Journal 966-982 (November 2006), see Guideline

11.1.C: “Counsel at every stage have an obligation to satisfy themselves

independently that the official record of the proceedings is complete and to

supplement it as appropriate;” Guideline 12.2.A.7:

                                          7
      Counsel must recognize that errors are often committed by the clerk
      in preparation of the clerk’s transcript, and by the court reporter in
      compiling the reporter’s transcript, therefore counsel must ensure that
      the record is true, correct and complete in all respects. If errors or
      omissions are found, objections to the record must be immediately
      filed with the trial or appellate courts, to obtain corrections or
      hearings to insure reliability of the record.

      Where the Clerk’s Record or Reporter’s Record is found to be incomplete,

the appellate court may direct the trial court clerk and court reporter to prepare,

certify, and file the missing items or record in the appellate court. TEX. R. APP. P.

34.5 (c)(1) and TEX. R. APP.P. 34.6(d).

      With regard to the absence of the trial court’s promised findings of fact and

conclusions of law on the Motion to Suppress, these must be provided upon

Appellant’s timely request. Cullen v. State, 195 S.W.3d 696, 699 (Tex. Crim.

App. 2006)(upon request of the losing party on a motion to suppress evidence, the

trial court shall state its essential findings); See also State v. Elias, 339 S.W.3d

667, 674 (Tex. Crim. App. 2011) (requirement of findings of fact and conclusions

of law assures that appellate court has adequate basis upon which to review trial

court’s application of law to fact, based on reality of what occurred in trial court

and not on possibly fictitious assumptions).

                                           8
                          CONCLUSION AND PRAYER.

        Appellant’s opening brief cannot be filed before the record in the case is

complete and before the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law on Appellant’s

Motion to Suppress are prepared by the trial court. Given the number of

omissions in the current record, and their importance, for briefing to continue at

this point would deprive Appellant of his right to effective counsel on appeal and

would almost inevitably result in confusing piecemeal litigation of Appellant’s

case.

        WHEREFORE, Appellant Brian Suniga, prays the Court of Criminal

Appeals abate this case and its briefing schedule with immediate effect from the

date that this motion is filed, and remand this case to the 140th District Court with

instructions to that court to prepare and file the missing Findings of Fact and

Conclusions of Law.

        Appellant also specifically prays that this Court order the Clerk of the 140th

District Court to provide a supplemental Clerk’s Record containing:

        a)    A copy of Appellant’s Motion to Suppress together with its exhibits;

        b)    Copies of any and all jury notes and any written responses to them
              provided by the trial court;

        c)    Copies of the three missing CD-ROM exhibits to Appellant’s
              Motions for Change of Venue, 3 CR 1849-58 and 3 CR 1958-85;

                                           9
      d)     A complete docket sheet indicating all hearings conducted and all
             motions, orders or other filings, including any sealed filings, made in
             the trial court, and the date of each hearing or filing, and an indication
             of the party filing any sealed pleading. A copy of that docket sheet
             should also be provided to the court reporter in this case;

      e)     Copies of all pleadings, motions, orders, correspondence or other
             items filed in the trial court and not previously provided in the
             Clerk’s Record, with copies of any ex parte sealed pleadings by the
             defense to be provided separately to counsel for Appellant.

      In addition, Applicant prays that the Clerk be directed to provide copies of

all jury cards and questionnaires to Appellant’s counsel, to be maintained as

confidential until and unless public disclosure is sought, if relevant to the issues in

this case.

      Appellant further prays that this Court order the Court Reporter of the 140th

District Court, after reviewing the docket sheet to be prepared by the Clerk of

Court, to provide a supplemental Reporter’s Record of any hearing or proceeding

conducted in this cause not already provided, including transcripts of any hearings

conducted in chambers that were not ordered by the trial court to be placed under

seal. If any hearing was ordered by the trial court to be one whose transcript

should be sealed, Appellant prays that the Court Reporter be directed to notify

counsel for Appellant of the existence of such a hearing and its date.

      Appellant further prays for a period of thirty days from the time that the

                                          10
findings of fact and conclusions of law are filed, and the supplemental Clerk’s

Record and Reporter’s Record filed, in order to review the additional materials, in

accordance with TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6 which provides thirty days for the

preparation of an Appellant’s Brief after the record is filed.

                               Respectfully submitted,
