      Re:        Vanessa Cameron v. State, No. PD-1427-13
                 Additional Authorites

Dear Mr. Acosta:

        I will be citing two additional authorities during my oral argument tomorrow in
this case:

      Barnes v. State, No. 04-13-00346-CR (Tex.App.—San Antonio delivered
December 10, 2014) – trial court did not take any ―affirmative action to exclude the
public…‖

      Pena v. State, 441 S.W.3d 635 (Tex.App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2014, pet. ref’d) –
Under Lilly v. State, burden of proof is on defense.

      Please call these cases to the attention of the Court. Thank you for your help.

                                          Very truly yours,
                                          Jay Brandon
