In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-21-00427-CV ____________ IN THE INTEREST OF C.U.D., S.L.D., A/K/A S.D., J.P.J.D., K.K.J.D., A.E.D., II, CHILDREN
On Appeal from the 308th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2018-37155
ORDER This is an accelerated appeal from a judgment in a parental termination appeal. Appellant’s brief was due November 2, 2021. No brief has 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). This accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines.
Therefore we order appellant’s appointed counsel, Angela Ellis, to file appellant’s brief no later than November 15, 2021. 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. In addition, the court may require appointment of new counsel due to the failure to timely file appellant’s brief.
PER CURIAM
Panel Consists of Justices Wise, Jewell, and Poissant.
