From the 112th Judicial District Court, Sutton County, Texas Trial Court No. CV06287 Honorable Pedro (Pete) Gomez Jr., Judge Presiding

ORDER This is an accelerated appeal from the trial court’s order terminating Appellant R.H.’s parental rights. Appellant R.H. has been found not indigent. She was recently given forty-five days to retain counsel. Her appellant’s brief was due January 31, 2022, but has not been filed.

We ORDER Appellant R.H. to file, on or before February 28, 2022, her appellant’s brief and a written response reasonably explaining (1) her failure to timely file the brief and (2) why appellee is not significantly injured by her failure to timely file a brief. If Appellant R.H. fails to file a brief and the written response by the date ordered, her appeal will be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(a); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c) (allowing involuntary dismissal if appellant has failed to comply with a court order).
