Kevin Revell v. State

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-06-00137-CR Kevin Revell, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee From the 361st District Court Brazos County, Texas Trial Court No. 05-02646-CRF-361 ORDER The trial court imposed Kevin Dwayne Revell’s sentence on March 1, 2006. Revell filed a motion for new trial and then a notice of appeal. The district clerk filed the clerk’s record on June 7. To date, no reporter’s record has been filed. Because of the motion for new trial, the reporter’s record was originally due on June 29, 2006. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1(a). The Clerk of this Court notified the official court reporter, Susan Rainwater, that the record was overdue by letter dated August 22, 2006. This letter directed Rainwater to contact the Clerk regarding the matter within 30 days. Rainwater did not respond. A second notice was sent to Rainwater on November 7 directing her to contact the Clerk regarding the matter within 10 days. Rainwater did not respond, so the Clerk contacted her by telephone on November 28. In this conversation, Rainwater advised that she was working on this record and it should be completed within two weeks. Aside from this conversation, Rainwater has generally failed to return the Clerk’s telephone calls. Accordingly, we ORDER court reporter Susan Rainwater to file the reporter’s record for cause number 05-02646-CRF-361 in the 361st District Court of Brazos County, Texas with the Clerk of the Tenth Court of Appeals, McLennan County Courthouse, 501 Washington Avenue, Room 415, Waco, Texas 76701, on or before February 21, 2007. See McElwee v. Joham, 971 S.W.2d 198, 198 (Tex. App.—Waco 1998, order), disp. on merits, 15 S.W.3d 557 (Tex. App.—Waco 2000, no pet.). FAILURE OF SUSAN RAINWATER TO FILE THE REPORTER’S RECORD ON OR BEFORE FEBRUARY 21, 2007 MAY RESULT IN THE ISSUANCE OF A SHOW CAUSE ORDER AND/OR JUDGMENT OF CONTEMPT. The Court ORDERS that this Order be personally served on Susan Rainwater by overnight delivery via a commercial delivery service within the meaning of Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.5(b). See Tex. R. App. P. 9.5(b). PER CURIAM Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Vance, and Justice Reyna (Chief Justice Gray dissenting) Order issued and filed February 7, 2007 Do not publish
