A. R. v. Texas Department of Family and Protective Services
Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-20-00072-CV
A. R., Appellant
v.
Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
FROM THE 353RD DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY NO. D-1-FM-18-003020, THE HONORABLE LORA J. LIVINGSTON, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER
PER CURIAM Appellant A. R. filed her notice of appeal on January 27, 2020. The appellate record was complete March 4, 2020, making appellant’s brief due March 24, 2020. To date, appellant’s brief has not been filed.
The rules of judicial administration accelerate the final disposition of appeals from suits for termination of parental rights. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a) (providing 180 days for court’s final disposition). The accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines. Therefore, we order Robert Galvin to file appellant’s brief no later than April 10, 2020. If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of court.
It is ordered on March 26, 2020.
Before Chief Justice Rose, Justices Baker and Triana
