                       THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

__________________________________________________________________

                On Appeal from the 435th District Court
                      Montgomery County, Texas
          Trial Cause Nos. 21-03-03965-CR & 21-03-03966-CR
__________________________________________________________________

                                      ORDER

      Appellant David William Runyon filed a motion to abate the appeals and

remand the cases for written findings of fact and conclusions of law. Findings of fact

and conclusions of law made by the judge who conducted the hearing on the motion

to suppress may aid this Court’s review of the issues raised in the appellant’s brief.

See State v. Cullen, 195 S.W.3d 696, 699 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). The State has not

filed an objection to an abatement.

                                          1
      Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the appeals are abated and the cases are

remanded to the trial court for entry of findings of fact and conclusions of law on the

trial court’s essential findings on the issues raised in the hearing of appellant’s

motion to suppress. See Tex. R. App. P. 44.4. In each appeal, a supplemental clerk’s

record containing the trial court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law are due to

be filed in this Court by July 7, 2022. See Tex. R. App. P. 34.5(c)(2). All appellate

timetables are suspended pending filing of the supplemental clerk’s records with this

Court. The appeals will be reinstated without further order when the supplemental

clerk’s records are filed with the appellate court. The brief of the appellant is due

thirty days after the supplemental clerk’s records are filed. Requests for briefing

extensions will be strongly disfavored.

      ORDER ENTERED June 7, 2022.
