Order entered June 17, 2021

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-21-00261-CV IN THE INTEREST OF A.B. AND E.B., CHILDREN On Appeal from the 296th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 296-53861-2020 ORDER Appellant’s brief in this appeal was filed prematurely, before the filing of the clerk’s and reporter’s records. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a). Because the brief must contain citations to the record, we STRIKE appellant’s June 1, 2021 brief. See id. 38.1.

We note the reporter’s record in this appeal has not been filed because appellant has not paid or made arrangements to pay the reporter’s fee.

Accordingly, we ORDER appellant to file, no later than June 28, 2021, written verification he has paid or made arrangements to pay for the reporter’s record or is entitled to proceed without payment of costs under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 145. We caution appellant that failure to file the requested verification may result in the appeal being submitted without the reporter’s record. See TEX. R. APP. P.37.3(c).

The deadline for appellant’s brief shall be set by the Court once the issue concerning the reporter’s record has been resolved.
