No. 04-22-00743-CR
Sylvia COVARRUBIAS-MONTES,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 365th Judicial District Court, Maverick County, Texas
Trial Court No. 20-11-08163-MCRAJA
Honorable Amado J. Abascal III, Judge Presiding
ORDER
The reporter’s record was originally due November 10, 2022; however, the court granted
the reporter, Patricia Salinas, a thirty-day extension of time to file the record. On December 13,
2022, Salinas filed a notification of late record, requesting an additional thirty-five days to file
the record.
We grant in part Salinas’ request, and we order reporter Salinas to file the record by
January 10, 2023. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(c) (extension of time to file record in ordinary
appeal must not exceed 30 days). Salinas is advised that the court will not grant a further
extension of time unless she: (1) establishes there are extraordinary circumstances that prevent
her from timely filing the record, (2) advises the court of what efforts have been expended to
prepare the record and the status of completion, and (3) provides the court reasonable assurance
the record will be completed and filed by the requested extended deadline.
Because “[t]he trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the
appellate record is timely filed,” TEX .R. APP. P. 35.3(c), we also order the clerk of this court to
serve a copy of this order on the trial court.
