Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas December 20, 2016
No. 04-16-00687-CR
In re Edward SCHROEDER, Appellant
From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2016CR5546 Honorable Jefferson Moore, Judge Presiding
ORDER Appellant Edward Schroeder seeks to appeal the trial court’s October 10, 2016 judgment of contempt against him for failure to appear in court. Appellate courts do not have jurisdiction to review contempt proceedings on direct appeal. In re T.L.K., 90 S.W.3d 833, 841 (Tex. App.— San Antonio 2002, no pet.); In re A.M., 974 S.W.2d 857, 861 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1998, no pet.) (the remedy from a finding of contempt is a habeas proceeding). Accordingly, appellant is hereby ORDERED to show cause in writing within fifteen (15) days from the date of this order stating why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(f).
