In the Interest of R.L. aka R.C., aka R.M., and R.L.
ORDER Trial court case number: 2009-03954 Trial court: 311th District Court of Harris County
Because this appeal involves a child-protection case, this Court is required to bring the appeal to final disposition within 180 days of the date the notice of appeal was filed so far as reasonably possible. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2, reprinted in TEX. GOV'T. CODE ANN., tit. 2, subtit. F app. (West 2013); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 28.4(a)(1), (2)(B). Appellant's notice of appeal, filed on October 24, 2016, reflects that she is presumed indigent and may proceed without payment of costs. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 145, TEX. R. APP. P. 20.1.
The clerk's record was due in this case on November 3, 2016. See TEX. R. APP. P. 28.4, 35.1. On November 7, 2016, the Clerk of this Court notified the Harris County District Clerk that the clerk's record was late and provided the district clerk a deadline of November 17, 2016 to file the clerk's record or request an extension of time. The district clerk has not responded, and no clerk's record has been filed.
Accordingly, the Harris County District Clerk is ORDERED to file, at no cost to appellant, a clerk's record in this appeal no later than Monday, November 28, 2016. No extensions of time will be granted.
It is so ORDERED. Judge's signature: /s/ Terry Jennings
