IN THE INTEREST OF C.W., A CHILD

On Appeal from the 305th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 11-667

ORDER Both the clerk’s record and the reporter’s record are overdue in this parental termination

case. In his docketing statement, Father states he has filed an affidavit of indigency.

Accordingly, this Court ORDERS the Dallas County District Clerk to file, within TEN DAYS,

either (1) the clerk’s record or (2) written verification that a contest to the affidavit of indigency

has been filed and sustained.

We ORDER Pamela Sumler, Official Court Reporter for the 305th Judicial District

Court, to file, within TEN DAYS, either (1) the reporter’s record or (2) written verification that a

contest to the affidavit of indigency has been filed and sustained.

Because this is a parental termination case, we remind Ms. Sumler that it is the

responsibility of the Court Reporter to prepare, certify, and timely file the reporter’s record. We

DIRECT Judge Lee-Shannon to instruct Ms. Sumler to immediately commence the preparation of the reporter’s record. Judge Lee-Shannon must arrange for a substitute reporter if necessary.
