The State of Texas,
Appellant
v.
Raymond Soto,
Appellee
From the 226th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2018CR9018, 2018CR9019 & 2018CR9020
The Honorable Velia J. Meza, Judge Presiding
ORDER
The State has filed a first amended motion to consolidate appeal numbers 04-19-00427-
CR, 04-19-00428-CR, and 04-19-00429-CR.1 Due to the similarities between the cases, this
court has determined that the cases should be consolidated for briefing and argument. It is
therefore ORDERED that the first amended motion to consolidate is GRANTED. The parties
shall file all motions, briefs, and other documents as if the three appeals were one case, but shall
include all three appeal numbers in the style of the case. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.3(a). The records
for the three appeals shall remain separated. In the event oral argument is granted, all three
appeals shall be argued together, as a single appeal, and the total time limit for each side at oral
argument shall equal the ordinary time limit for a single appeal. The court may dispose of all
three appeals with the same judgment, opinion, and mandate.
