On Appeal from the 304th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. JD-18-01485-W

ORDER

Appellant’s brief in this juvenile certification appeal is overdue. Because these types of

cases must be handled expeditiously, appellant is ORDERED to file, within TEN DAYS of the

date of this order, both appellant’s brief and an extension motion. Failure to file the brief and an

extension motion by the time specified may result in an order for the trial court to conduct a

hearing to determine why appellant’s brief has not been filed and to take such measures as may

be necessary to assure effective representation, including appointment of new counsel.
