       APPELLANT’S MOTION TO SUPPLEMENT REPORTER’S RECORD
         AND ORDER BRIEF DUE THIRTY DAYS AFTER RECORD IS
                          SUPPLEMENTED

TO THE HONORABLE JUSTICES OF THE FOURTEENTH COURT OF
APPEALS:

         COMES NOW LUIS EDUARDO LARA, Appellant in the above-styled and

numbered cause, by his Counsel of Record, Greg Russell, and pursuant to

TEX.R.APP.P. 34.6(g)(2), and files this Motion to Supplement Record and in

support thereof would show this Honorable Court the following:

                                         I.

                                         1
      Appellant was found guilty by a jury of the offense of Sexual Assault of a

Child, Indecency with Child by Conduct and Continuous Sexual Abuse of a Child

and punishment was assessed by the Court at 15, 8 and 28 years, respectively,

Institutional Division – Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

                                         II.

      Appellant’s Brief is due on or before November 5, 2015.

                                        III.

      The Reporter’s record of Carol Castillo contains exhibits of a completely

different case, styled The State of Texas vs. Devane Salters.

                                        IV.

      The Reporter’s Record does not contain any of the exhibits from this case of

Luis Lara.   During the Guilt-Innocence and Punishment phases of the trial, the

State and Appellant introduced various Exhibits (entire record). These exhibits

were not made part of the Reporter’s Record and consequently were not sent to the

court of appeals. (entire record) Appellant needs to review these exhibits as to

possible grounds of error on appeal.

                                         2
                                        V.

      TRAP 34.6(g)(2) provides that the record may be supplemented with

original exhibits if request is made by the appellate court or by a party. Also, see

Pitts v. State, 916 S.W.2d 507, 509-510. Because Appellant must inspect these

exhibits to determine possible grounds of error, Appellant hereby seeks

supplementation of this record.

                                             RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,

                                             /s/    Greg Russell
