ORDER Trial court case number: 2014-66511 Trial court: 312th District Court of Harris County
On September 13, 2016, this case was abated and remanded to the trial court to determine, among other things, whether to permit appellant's current counsel, Jaclyn Jones, to withdraw and whether to appoint new counsel in this parental termination appeal. On October 10, 2016, a supplemental clerk's record was filed in this Court attaching, among other things, an order discharging Jaclyn Jones as counsel and appointing Donald Crane to represent appellant as counsel. Because the clerk's record was already filed in this Court on July 25, 2016, and the reporter's records were filed in this Court on August 4, 2016, the appellate records appear to be complete.
Accordingly, the Court sua sponte directs the Clerk of this Court to REINSTATE this case on the Court's active docket, to remove Jaclyn Jones as appellant's counsel, and to designate Donald Crane as appellant's new counsel.
Appellant's brief is ORDERED to be filed within 20 days of the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 2, 38.6(a)(1).
The appellee's brief, if any, is ORDERED to be filed within 20 days of the date of the filing of appellant's brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(b).
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Laura Carter Higley
