                              MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

                  Appellant Charles Jerome Hutchinson filed his notice of appeal on November 9,

2011. This Court notified appellant on February 23, 2012 that he had not paid or made arrangements

to pay for the reporter’s record and that his appeal would be considered without the reporter’s record

and his brief would be due March 26, 2012, if he did not respond to the notice. To date, appellant’s

brief has not been filed and appellant’s retained counsel, Lance Hamm, did not respond to this

Court’s notice.

                  The appeal is abated. The trial court shall conduct a hearing to determine whether

appellant desires to prosecute this appeal, whether he is indigent, and whether his retained counsel

has abandoned this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(2). The court shall make appropriate

findings and recommendations. See id. A record from this hearing, including copies of all findings

and orders and a transcription of the court reporter’s notes, shall be forwarded to the clerk
of this Court for filing as a supplemental record no later than October 3, 2012. See Tex. R. App.

P. 38.8(b)(3).
