                                 MOTION TO WITHDRAW

TO THE HONORABLE COURT:

        Now comes Austin Reeve Jackson, counsel for Appellant in the above entitled and

numbered cause, and makes this Motion to Withdraw, and for good cause shows the following:

                                                I.

        Counsel was appointed to represent Appellant in his PDR. Both parties have now filed

their briefs in this matter and this case was submitted on 18 March 2020. As of today, 8 December,

no decision has been returned.

        On 1 January counsel will take office as judge of the 114th District Court of Smith County

and can no longer represent any client. Consequently, Appellant, who is indigent, will be left

without counsel unless a new attorney is appointed. For this reason, counsel would request the

Court remand this case to the trial court for the purpose of appointing new counsel.

        A copy of this motion has been sent to Appellant at:

        WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, undersigned counsel respectfully prays

that, in accordance with the applicable law, the Court grant this Motion to Withdraw and remand

the case for appointment of new counsel.
                                           Respectfully submitted,

                                           /s/ Austin Reeve Jackson
