IN THE INTEREST OF O.S.S. AND L.L.S., CHILDREN
From the 52nd District Court Coryell County, Texas
Trial Court No. DC-17-46965
ORDER
On May 17, 2019, Appellant, O.S.S.'s and L.L.S.'s mother, filed a notice of appeal from the trial court's order of termination. Rule of Judicial Administration 6.2 states that an appeal of a suit for termination of the parent-child relationship should, "so far as reasonably possible," be disposed of within 180 days from the date the notice of appeal is filed. This appeal should therefore, "so far as reasonably possible," be disposed of by November 13, 2019.
The clerk's record was filed on May 21, 2019. The reporter's record was filed on May 24, 2019. Appellant's brief was therefore due on June 13, 2019. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6(a).
Appellant filed a motion for extension of time to file her appellant's brief, which this Court granted. The due date for Appellant to file her brief was extended to July 3, 2019. Appellant has now filed a second motion for extension of time to file her appellant's brief, requesting an extension until August 2, 2019 to file her brief because she "needs time to correct inaccuracies in the reporter's record pursuant to Rule 34.6(e)."
Appellant's second motion for extension of time to file brief is denied. Appellant shall correct any alleged inaccuracies in the reporter's record within 14 days of the date of this order. Appellant's brief is then due 34 days from the date of this order. Because time is of the essence in this appeal, no further motions for extension of time to file the appellant's brief will be entertained, absent extraordinary circumstances.
