       We REINSTATE this appeal.

       On May 16, 2019, we abated for a hearing to determine why appellant’s brief had not

substitute counsel and extend time to file a brief.

       We GRANT the motion and VACATE our May 16, 2019 order. The Clerk of the Court

is DIRECTED to REMOVE Russ Henrichs and SUBSTITUTE Michael Casillas as appointed

counsel for appellant. All future correspondence should be sent to Michael Casillas, 10100 N.

Central Expressway, Suite 230, Dallas, TX 75231.

       We ORDER appellant’s brief due on or before July 1, 2019.
       We DIRECT the Clerk to send copies of this order to the Honorable Tammy Kemp,

Presiding Judge, 204th Judicial District Court; Russ Henrichs; Michael Casillas, and to the

Dallas County District Attorney.
