Court, as to whether your case qualifies for such free legal representation. If you feel your
financial situation might qualify you for this help, and you would like to be considered for
such help, complete the information in this section. More information regarding this
program can be found in the Pro Bono Program Pamphlet for the Second Court of Appeals
available in paper form at the Clerk’s Office or on the Internet at http://www.tex-app.org
NOTE: There is no guarantee that an attorney will be found to represent you.
Accordingly, you should keep looking for counsel to represent you in this case. By
signing your name below, you authorize the Pro Bono Committee to transmit publicly
available facts and information about your case, including parties and background,
through selected Internet sites and a Listserv to its pool of volunteer appellate
