        Counsel for appellant, Jeremy Dion Washington, has filed a “Motion to Substitute
Counsel of Record,” representing that Mark Kratovil of the Harris County Public Defender’s
Office was appointed to represent appellant on appeal, and Daucie Schindler of the Harris

remains as appellant’s lead counsel until new lead counsel is designated or a motion to withdraw
is filed and granted, in compliance with the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R.
APP. P. 6.1(c) (providing for designation of new lead counsel), 6.5 (providing for withdrawal of
attorney from representing party in appellate court).
       It is so ORDERED.
