In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-16-00342-CV NO. 14-16-00350-CV ____________ In the Interests of D.J.L., Jr., A.J.I.L., and A.S.L., Children

On Appeal from the 315th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. 2014-05086J-C and 2014-05086J-A

ORDER These are accelerated appeals from judgments in a parental termination case.

Appellant’s briefs were due on May 23, 2016, and May 26, 2016. No briefs have been filed.

Appeals in parental termination cases and child protection cases are to be brought to final disposition within 180 days of the date the notice of appeal is filed.

See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a) (effective May 1, 2012). This accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines.

Therefore, we order appellant’s appointed counsel, William Connolly, to file appellant’s briefs no later than June 6, 2016. If the briefs are not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of court. In addition, the court may require appointment of new counsel due to the failure to timely file appellant’s briefs.
