                                    ORDER

      The Court REINSTATES the appeals.
      On January 23, 2013, we ordered  the  trial  court  to  make  findings
regarding why appellant's briefs had not been filed.  On January  28,  2013,
we  received  appellant's  briefs,  together  with  his  extension  motions.
Therefore, in the  interest  of  expediting  the  appeals,  we   VACATE  the
January 23, 2013 order requiring findings.
      We GRANT the January 28,  2013  extension  motions  ORDER  appellant's
briefs filed as of the date of this order.
