In the Interest of K.G., a child


On Appeal from the 306th District Court Galveston County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 20CP0025

Panel Consists of Justices Wise, Spain, and Hassan.

ORDER

PER CURIAM

This is an accelerated appeal from a decree for termination in a parental termination appeal. Appellant's brief was due November 29, 2021. No brief has 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). This accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines.

Therefore, we order appellant's appointed counsel, Gabriel Perez, to file appellant's brief no later than December 9, 2021. If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why he should not be held in contempt of court. In addition, the court may require appointment of new counsel due to the failure to timely file appellant's brief.
