Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
JUDGMENT RENDERED AUGUST 31, 2022
NO. 03-22-00189-CV
S. W., Appellant v. Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
APPEAL FROM THE 20TH DISTRICT COURT OF MILAM COUNTY BEFORE CHIEF JUSTICE BYRNE, JUSTICES TRIANA AND SMITH VACATED AND DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION OPINION BY CHIEF JUSTICE BYRNE DISSENTING OPINION BY JUSTICE TRIANA
This is an appeal from the order signed by the trial court on April 7, 2022. Having reviewed the record, the Court holds that there was error in the order as the trial court lacked jurisdiction over the cause when it signed the order. Therefore, the Court vacates the trial court’s order and dismisses the underlying cause for want of jurisdiction. Because appellant is indigent and unable to pay costs, no adjudication of costs is made.
