       The Court REINSTATES the appeal.

       On April 30, 2015, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why appellant’s

brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to pursue the

appeal; (2) appellant is indigent and represented by court-appointed counsel Christian Souza; (3)

counsel’s explanation for the delay in filing appellant’s brief is his workload; and (4) counsel

requested an additional three weeks from the May 18, 2015 findings to file appellant’s brief.

       We ORDER appellant to file his brief by MONDAY, JUNE 15, 2015.
