Opinion
Order entered September 26, 2018
In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-18-00793-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF D.D., JR., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 255th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-17-10679
ORDER We REINSTATE this appeal.
On August 22, 2018, we abated the appeal to allow the trial court an opportunity to
conduct a hearing to determine if appellant wished to be represented by counsel and, if she did,
to appoint counsel. The trial court was to make written findings and transmit to the Court, no
later than September 14, 2018, a reporter’s record from the hearing and a supplemental clerk’s
record containing the findings and any order of appointment. To date, the requested record has
not been filed. However, by motion filed September 24, 2018, appellant informs the Court that
the trial court sua sponte appointed Stephanie L. Pond to represent her and asks, in part, that the
deadline for filing appellant’s brief be set. We GRANT the motion as follows.
We DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to designate Ms. Pond as counsel for appellant and
ORDER appellant to file her brief no later than October 8, 2018.
