Narrative Opinion Summary
The appeal of Nishal Keshav Rajsankha against the State of Texas has been reinstated by the Court of Appeals for the Fifth District of Texas. On August 11, 2016, the court had previously ordered the trial court to provide findings regarding the delay in filing the reporter’s record. However, since the reporter’s record was received on September 23, 2016, the need for those findings has been deemed unnecessary. Consequently, the court has vacated the August 11 order and officially ordered the reporter’s record to be filed as of the date of this order.
