juvenile and his guardian of his right to review the record and file a pro se brief. See In re

        If appellant desires to file a pro se brief, we order the brief due September 5, 2016. The
State has filed a notice waiving its right to file a brief in this case unless appellant files a pro se
brief. We further order the motion to withdraw filed by appellant’s counsel is held in abeyance
