OrderPer Curiam
Appellant J.R., Jr. has filed a notice of appeal from a judgment in trial court cause no. 2014-FAM-61743-5 that terminated his parental rights over J.R., III, J.R., and J.A.R. Appellant B.B. filed a notice of appeal of the same order. This cause is presently before the Court because appellant J.R., Jr.'s notice of appeal was filed after the due date and the expiration of the fifteen-day period for filing a motion for extension of time. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(b), 26.3, 28.1(b).
Because this case is accelerated and B.B.'s appeal is still proceeding, the appeal with respect to appellant J.R., Jr. is hereby SEVERED from the remainder of the appeal and placed into appellate cause number 13-16-00216-CV styled In the Interest of J.R., III, J.R., and J.A.R., Children. The appeal of B.B. will remain under cause number 13-16-00149-CV and will proceed in due course.
