IN THE INTEREST OF K.K., A CHILD

On Appeal from the 305th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. JC-17-00489-X

ORDER The reporter’s record in this accelerated appeal involving the termination of appellant’s parental rights is overdue. Before the Court is the request of Pamela Sumler, Official Court Reporter of the 305th Judicial District Court, for a fourteen-day extension of time to file the reporter’s record. We GRANT the request to the extent that the reporter’s record shall be filed by November 19, 2018. See TEX. R. APP. P. 35.3(c) (extension limited to ten days in accelerated appeals). The rules of judicial administration accelerate the final disposition of appeals involving the termination of parental rights. See TEX. R. JUD. ADMIN. 6.2(a) (providing 180 days for court’s final disposition). Accordingly, we caution Ms. Sumler that further requests for extension will be strongly disfavored. We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order to the Honorable Cheryl Lee Shannon, Judge of the 305th Judicial District Court, Ms. Sumler, and all parties. /s/ ADA BROWN JUSTICE
