In the Interest of B.J.C., G.J.C., and G.E.C., Children


On Appeal from the 314th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2009-04768J

ORDER

This is an accelerated appeal from a judgment in a suit in which the termination of the parent-child relationship is at issue.

The notice of appeal was filed October 23, 2015. Appellant has established indigence or is presumed to be indigent. See Tex. R. App. P. 20.1(a). The reporter's record was due within 10 days after the notice of appeal was filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.1(b); 28.4(a)(1). Part of the record has been filed, but the potion for which Geneva Villanueva is responsible has not 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). The trial and appellate courts are jointly responsible for ensuring that the appellate record is timely filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c). The trial court must direct the court reporter to immediately commence the preparation of the reporter's record and must arrange for a substitute reporter, if necessary. See Tex. R. App. P. 28.4(b)(1).

Because the reporter's record has not been filed timely in this accelerated appeal, we issue the following order:

We order Geneva Villanueva, the court reporter, to file the record in this appeal on or before November 13, 2015. If Geneva Villanueva does not timely file the record as ordered, the court may issue an order requiring the trial court to hold a hearing to determine why the record has not been filed.
