       1.      This case is on appeal from the 217th District Court of Angelina
County, Texas.
       2.      The case below was styled the STATE OF TEXAS vs. David Charles

       4.      Appellant was assessed a sentence of Ten (10) years in Texas

April 15, 2015.
       5.      Notice of appeal was given on April 16, 2015.
      6.     The clerk's record was filed on August 13, 2015; the reporter's record
