TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-13-00289-CV

T. D. J. and E. L. M. II, Appellants v. Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee

FROM THE 340TH DISTRICT COURT OF TOM GREEN COUNTY, NO. C-12-0035-CPS, THE HONORABLE JAY K. WEATHERBY, JUDGE PRESIDING

ORDER PER CURIAM Appellant T. D. J. filed her notice of appeal on April 29, 2013. The appellate record was complete May 10, 2013, making appellant’s brief due May 30, 2013. To date, appellant’s brief has not been filed.

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 requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines. Therefore we order counsel to file appellant’s brief no later than June 19, 2013. If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why she should not be held in contempt of court.

It is ordered on June 4, 2013.

Before Chief Justice Jones, Justices Goodwin and Field
