          Other: _____________________________________
          On May 22, 2015, the trial court found appellant to be indigent for the purposes of
          hiring an appellate attorney and paying for the appellate records, but counsel was to be
          appointed at a later date. On June 8, 2015, after the notice of appeal was received by
          the Clerk of this Court on June 5, 2015, the Clerk sent notice to, among others, the
          court reporter that the record is due by July 20, 2015. Accordingly, appellant’s motion
          to expedite the filing of the reporter’s record is dismissed because the reporter is
          responsible for timely filing it by the July 20th deadline, which may be extended if
          the reporter makes a request to this Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(b)(3), (c).
