most recently to November 28, 2007. The brief has not been received.

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

appellant desires to prosecute this appeal and, if so, whether the attorney appointed by the court has

abandoned the appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(2). The court shall make appropriate findings and

recommendations. If necessary, the court shall appoint substitute counsel who will effectively
