IN THE INTEREST OF S.R.F. AND S.W.F., CHILDREN

From the 408th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2019PA00061 Honorable Mary Lou Alvarez, Judge Presiding

ORDER

This is an accelerated appeal from an order terminating the parental rights of Thomas M. and Sheila F. The clerk’s record and reporter’s record have been filed and appellants’ briefs are due on April 5, 2021.

On March 19, 2021, interveners, G.Z. and S.R., filed a Suggestion of Death and Motion to Dismiss, stating appellant Thomas M. died on or about February 26, 2021, and asking this court to dismiss his appeal. In their motion, interveners contend appellant Sheila F. “confirmed through her attorney, that Appellant, [Thomas M.] has died.” Attached to the motion is a newspaper article about the death of an individual named ‘Thomas Mack.” No other documentation supporting Thomas M.’s death has been provided to this court, nor do interveners allege they have the authority to act on behalf of Thomas M. or his estate.

Appellant Sheila F. and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services are hereby ORDERED to file responses to interveners’ Suggestion of Death and Motion to Dismiss no later than April 2, 2021.

Appellant Sheila F.’s brief remains due April 5, 2021.
