In the Interest of C.J., a Child
ORDER Trial court case number: 2018-00169J Trial court: 313th District Court of Harris County, Texas
This appeal involves the termination of the parent-child relationship. Appellee, the Department of Family and Protective Services, has filed an amended unopposed motion to extend time to file its appellee's brief, requesting that the Court extend the deadline for filing its brief to August 20, 2020. The amended motion is GRANTED. Appellee's brief is due on August 20, 2020.
Because this is a termination case, the Court is required to bring this appeal to final disposition within 180 days of the date the notice of appeal was filed so far as reasonably possible. See TEX. R. JUD. ADMIN. 6.2, reprinted in TEX. GOV'T CODE ANN., tit. 2, subtit. F app. For this reason, no extensions of time to file a brief will be granted absent extraordinary circumstances. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(d).
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Julie Countiss
