orders was dated December 18, 2003, and directed that the brief be tendered for filing no later than
January 22, 2004, the date requested by counsel.  Counsel did not comply with this order and no brief
has been received.
The district court is ordered to conduct a hearing to determine whether counsel has
abandoned this appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(2).  The court shall make appropriate findings and
