Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-21-00245-CV
R. J. R., Appellant
v.
Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
FROM THE 340TH DISTRICT COURT OF TOM GREEN COUNTY NO. C190138CPS, THE HONORABLE GARY L. BANKS, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER
PER CURIAM
Appellant R. J. R. filed her notice of appeal on May 24, 2021. The appellate
record was complete on June 4, 2021, making appellant’s brief due on June 24, 2021. To date,
appellant’s brief has not been filed.
The rules of judicial administration accelerate the final disposition of appeals
from suits for termination of parental rights. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a) (providing 180 days
for court’s final disposition). The accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing
deadlines. Therefore, we order Rae Leifeste to file appellant’s brief no later than July 20, 2021.
If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he should not be
held in contempt of court.
It is ordered on June 30, 2021.
Before Justices Goodwin, Triana, and Kelly
