Order entered January 30, 2023

                                    In The
                            Court of Appeals
                     Fifth District of Texas at Dallas

                             No. 05-22-00394-CR

                  SEDRIC DEJUAN BRAXTON, Appellant

                                      V.

                     THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

              On Appeal from the 195th Judicial District Court
                           Dallas County, Texas
                   Trial Court Cause No. F21-99731-N

                                   ORDER

      We REINSTATE the appeal.

      On December 20, 2022, the Court entered an order granting the State’s

motion to abate the appeal to allow the trial court to examine the judgment and

determine whether the trial court should file a new judgment using the correct

judgment form. On January 25, 2023, a supplemental clerk’s record was filed

containing a new judgment.
        Because appellant filed his brief in reliance upon the original judgment, we

will allow appellant the opportunity to file an amended or supplemental brief if he

so desires. We ORDER that any amended or supplemental brief be filed by

February 27, 2023.

        We ORDER the State’s brief filed by March 29, 2023. Because the State’s

brief was due initially on September 25, 2022, and thus was long overdue at the

time the State filed its motion for abatement, the Court may set the case for

submission without a State’s brief if the State’s brief is not filed by March 29,

2023.
