                                COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE
                           FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON

                                     ORDER TO REINSTATE

Trial court case number: 1153928; 1153929

        These cases were abated and remanded to the trial court on July 20, 2012. In the order of
abatement, we ordered the trial court to appoint appellate counsel to represent appellant. The
trial court held a hearing on our order of abatement on August 20, 2012, and the court reporter
has filed a record of the hearing. The reporter’s record shows that the trial court appointed
Thomas Lewis to represent appellant. Accordingly, we REINSTATE these cases on the Court’s
active docket.

APP. P. 38.6(a). Appellee’s brief, if any, is ORDERED to be filed within 30 days of the filing of
