Before GAULTNEY, KREGER and HORTON, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION

Tex.R.App.P. 47.4.


This is a suit affecting the parent-child relationship on which the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services is a party. The trial court signed a Status Hearing Order on December 7, 2004, and scheduled the initial Permanency Hearing for April 12, 2005. The appellant, Patrick Richard, filed notice of appeal on January 7, 2005. Upon receiving the notice of appeal, we notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not apparent from the notice of appeal, and warned that appeal would be dismissed unless our jurisdiction was established. The clerk's record filed February 7, 2005, does not contain an appealable order. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. § 263.201 (Vernon 2002); compare Tex. Fam. Code Ann. §§ 263.404-05 (Vernon 2002). We conclude the notice of appeal did not invoke our jurisdiction and that jurisdiction is vested in the trial court. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
