                Style: Steven Wayne Simmons v. The State of Texas

       Dear Judge Chitty:

               Appellant’s brief was due November 15, 2017. On February 8, 2018, we abated this
       appeal for a hearing on why appellant’s brief has not been filed. A copy of that order is enclosed
       for your convenience. To date, we have not received the record of the hearing, any findings of
       fact, or orders. Please inform the Court, within TEN DAYS of the date of this letter, of the
       status of the hearing. We appreciate your attention to this matter

                                            Respectfully,

                                            /s/ Lisa Matz, Clerk of the Court

              LM/cg
