                                          PER CURIAM

       Appellant Billy Ray Hale has lodged an appeal in this court from an order of the circuit

court denying his pro se petition for writ of habeas corpus. Now before us are appellant’s pro

se motions for appointment of counsel and to file a belated reply brief. We find good cause

to grant the motion for appointment of counsel and appoint Misty Borkowski. Our clerk is

directed to set a new briefing schedule for the appeal. As counsel has been appointed, the

motion to file belated reply brief is moot.

       Motion for appointment of counsel granted; motion to file belated reply brief moot.

       Billy R. Hale, pro se appellant.
