Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-12-00229-CV

Stephanie Anderson, Appellant

v.

Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee

FROM THE 146th District Court OF Bell COUNTY,

NO. 237,522-B, The Honorable Rick Morris, JUDGE PRESIDING

O R D E R

PER CURIAM

Appellant Stephanie Anderson filed her notice of appeal on April 9, 2012. The appellate record was complete April 19, 2012, making appellant=s brief due May 9, 2012. On May 15, 2012, counsel for appellant filed a motion for extension of time to file his brief.

Recent amendments to 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), available at http://www.supreme.courts.state.tx.us/MiscDocket/12/12903200.pdf (providing 180 days for court’s final disposition). The accelerated schedule constrains this Court’s leeway in granting extensions. In this instance, we will grant the motion and order counsel to file appellant=s brief no later than June 1, 2012. 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 May 17, 2012.

Before Justices Puryear, Henson and Goodwin
