                       On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court

                                             ORDER
       The Court REINSTATES these appeals.

       On November 10, 2016, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding why

appellant’s brief has not been filed. We ADOPT the findings that: (1) appellant desires to

pursue the appeals; (2) appellant is indigent and represented by court-appointed counsel Kathryn

Veech; (3) counsel’s explanation for the delay in filing appellant’s brief is due to family and

personal health issues; and (4) counsel requests an additional fifteen days to file the brief.

       We ORDER appellant to file his brief within FIFTEEN DAYS of the date of this order.
