point, or group of issues or points; (2) an index of authorities arranged alphabetically and

indicating the pages of the brief where the authorities are cited; (3) a concise statement of the

case, the course of proceedings, the trial court’s disposition of the case, and the facts supported

by record references; (4) appropriate citations to authorities and the record in the argument

portion; and, (5) a certificate of compliance regarding word count if computer-generated. See

TEX. R. APP. P. 9.4(i)(2)(B),(3); 38.1. Additionally, any documents which contain sensitive data

such as a child’s name and which are included in the appendix must be redacted by using the letter “X” in place of each omitted item or by removing the sensitive data in a manner indicating

the data has been redacted. See id. 9.9(a),(c).

We caution appellant that failure to comply with this order may result in dismissal of this

appeal without further notice.
