THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 228th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 643995 MEMORANDUM OPINION This appeal arises from the denial of a motion for DNA testing. On January 10, 2011, this court ordered a hearing to determine why appellant=s counsel had not filed a brief in this appeal.
