    BRIAN ANDREW DAVIS, Appellant
    V.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
    On Appeal from the 188th District Court
    Gregg County, Texas
    Trial Court No. 41482-A
    Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.
    ORDER
    Court reporter Grelyn Freeman recorded the trial court proceedings in cause number 06-
    13-00132-CR, styled Brian Andrew Davis v. The State of Texas, trial court cause number 41482-
    A, in the 188th Judicial District Court of Gregg County, Texas. The reporter’s record was
    originally due in this case August 16, 2013, and after two extensions, was most recently due to
    be filed by October 16, 2013. We granted the first two motions and stated in our disposition of
    the second motion that no further requests would be looked upon with favor.
    Freeman has now filed a third motion, requesting an additional thirty-day extension to
    prepare and file the record.
    The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure establish that “trial and appellate courts are
    jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed.” TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(c).
    The Rules further instruct that an “appellate court may enter any order necessary to ensure the
    timely filing of the appellate record.” Id. In furtherance of our responsibilities established by the
    Rules, we find we must take steps to ensure the filing of the record in this case.
    The motion to extend time is overruled. We order Grelyn Freeman to file the reporter’s
    record in cause number 06-13-00132-CR, to be received by this Court no later than Friday,
    November 15, 2013.
    If the record is not received by November 15, we warn Freeman that we may begin
    contempt proceedings and order her to show cause why she should not be held in contempt of
    this Court for failing to obey its order.

    IT IS SO ORDERED.
