FROM THE 340TH DISTRICT COURT OF TOM GREEN COUNTY, NO. C150072CPS, THE HONORABLE GARY L. BANKS, JUDGE PRESIDING ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
PER CURIAM
This is a contempt proceeding ancillary to the appeal of J.B.D. The subject of this proceeding is Charla H. Edwards, appellant's attorney.
Appellant filed his notice of appeal on January 24, 2017, and his brief was due February 21, 2017. On February 24, 2017, we ordered counsel to file appellant's brief no later than March 13, 2017. To date, appellant's brief has not been filed.
Therefore, it is hereby ordered that Charla H. Edwards shall appear in person before this Court on Wednesday, April 12, 2017, at 9:00 a.m., in the Third Court of Appeals courtroom, located on the first floor of the Price Daniel, Sr. Building, 209 West 14th Street, in Austin, Travis County, Texas, to show cause why she should not be held in contempt and have sanctions imposed for her failure to obey our February 24, 2017 order. This order to show cause will be withdrawn and Edwards will be relieved of her obligation to appear before this Court as ordered above if the Clerk of this Court receives appellant's brief on or before Monday, April 10, 2017.
It is ordered on March 21, 2017. Before Chief Justice Rose, Justices Field and Bourland
