in the Interest of C.R.G.P, a Minor Child
Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas May 27, 2022 No. 04-22-00236-CV IN THE INTEREST OF C.R.G.P, a minor child From the 73rd Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2019-CI-12544 Honorable Laura Salinas, Judge Presiding
ORDER Appellant appears to be appealing a judgment of contempt. This court does not have jurisdiction to review contempt orders by direct appeal. Norman v. Norman, 692 S.W.2d 655, 655 (Tex. 1985). Contempt orders may only be reviewed by an application for a writ of habeas corpus, if the contemnor has been confined, or by a petition for a writ of mandamus, if the contemnor has not been confined. See Rosser v. Squier, 902 S.W.2d 962, 962 (Tex. 1995); Ex parte Williams, 690 S.W.2d 243, 243 (Tex. 1985).
It is therefore ORDERED that Appellant show cause in writing within fifteen days of the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
