In The

Court of Appeals

Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-20-00959-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF D.B.S., B.L.S., B.L.P., D.E.S., AND A.B.P., CHILDREN

On Appeal from the 196th Judicial District Court Hunt County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 85179

ORDER

Before the Court is the children’s motion for extension of time to file their brief. We GRANT the motion and ORDER the brief be filed no later than January 29, 2021. Because this is an accelerated appeal in a parental termination case, we caution that failure to file the brief by the 29th may result in an order for the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine if new counsel should be appointed for the children so as to ensure they are effectively represented.
