Ex Parte J.P.

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas March 24, 2021 No. 04-20-00100-CV EX PARTE J.P., Appellant

From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2019W1790 Honorable Stephanie R. Boyd, Judge Presiding ORDER

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice

Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice

This appeal was submitted on briefs on October 7, 2020. On October 22, 2020, the Second Court of Appeals issued its opinion in Ex parte K.T., 612 S.W.3d 113 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2020, pet. filed). In that appeal, the Department filed a petition for review, and the petition is currently pending in the Supreme Court of Texas.

Because the supreme court’s disposition of Ex parte K.T. could control the disposition of this appeal, acting sua sponte, we WITHDRAW the submission date in this appeal. We ABATE this appeal pending the supreme court’s disposition of the petition in Ex parte K.T., or until further order of this court.

This appeal will be reset for submission at a later date.

It is so ORDERED on this 24th day of March, 2021.

PER CURIAM ATTESTED TO: ______________________________

MICHAEL A. CRUZ, Clerk of Court
