In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals ____________ NO. 14-22-00822-CV ____________ IN THE INTEREST OF L.S.S., A/K/A L.S.G., A CHILD

On Appeal from the 314th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2020-00921J

ORDER This is an accelerated appeal from a judgment in a parental termination appeal. Appellant’s brief was due January 10, 2023. 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) (effective May 1, 2012). This accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines.

Therefore we order appellant’s appointed counsel Donald M. Crane, to file appellant’s brief no later than January 23, 2023. If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he 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, Poissant, and Wilson.
