                                          Appellee

                           Honorable Ray Olivarri, Judge Presiding

                                        ORDER
       Appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed the appellant’s brief in this appeal on August

appointed attorney be dismissed and that new appellate counsel be appointed. “A criminal
defendant is not entitled to appointed counsel of choice.” Dunn v. State, 819 S.W.2d 510 520
(Tex. Crim. App. 1991). Accordingly, the motion is DENIED.
