In The

Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________

NO. 14-22-00654-CV ____________

In the Interest of D.L.W., Jr. and E.W., children

On Appeal from the 311th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2018-23638

ORDER

This is an accelerated appeal from a judgment in a parental termination appeal. Appellant’s brief was due October 10, 2022. No brief has been filed.

Appeals in parental termination cases and child protection cases are to be brought to final disposition within 180 days of the date the notice of appeal is filed. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a) (effective May 1, 2012). This accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines.

Therefore, we order appellant’s appointed counsel, Rocky Leann Pilgrim, to file appellant’s brief no later than October 20, 2022. 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. In addition, the court may require appointment of new counsel due to the failure to timely file appellant’s brief.

PER CURIAM

Panel Consists of Justices Jewell, Bourliot, and Zimmerer.
