                  GERRON BENARD SIMMONS, Appellant

                                         V.

                       THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 10th District Court
                          Galveston County, Texas
                      Trial Court Cause No. 13CR0784

                                     ORDER

      Appellant’s court-appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes the
appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Appellant filed a motion requesting
the record to be provided to him. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967);
Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). The motion is granted.

      Accordingly, we hereby direct the Judge of the 10th District Court to afford
appellant an opportunity to view the trial record in accordance with local procedure;
that the clerk of that court furnish the record to appellant on or before June 8, 2016;
that the clerk of that court certify to this court the date on which delivery of the
record to appellant is made; and that appellant file his pro se brief with this court
within thirty days of that date.
