In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-15-00671-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF N.B., ET AL., CHILDREN
On Appeal from the 304th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. JD-13-01362-W
ORDER
The reporter’s record in this termination of parental rights appeal is overdue. By postcard
dated May 29, 2015, we notified Court Reporter Marty Grant that the reporter’s record was
overdue in this case. We directed the court reporter to file the record within ten days and
cautioned that any request for an extension must be submitted in writing explaining the
extraordinary reasons for the delay. To date, the Court has not received a response.
Accordingly, we ORDER Marty Grant, Official Court Reporter for the 304th Judicial
District Court, to file, within TEN DAYS, either (1) the reporter’s record; or (2) written
verification that appellant has not requested the record.
Because this is a parental termination case, we remind both the trial court and the court
reporter that it is the responsibility of the court reporter to prepare, certify, and timely file the
reporter’s record and that the trial court must direct the court reporter to immediately commence
the preparation of the reporter’s record. The trial court must arrange a substitute reporter if
necessary. TEX. R. APP. P. 28.4(b)(1).
We notify appellant that if we receive verification that no request for the record has been
made, the appeal will be submitted without the reporter’s record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.3(c).
We DIRECT the Clerk of the Court to send copies of this order, by electronic
transmission, to the following persons:
Honorable Andrea Martin
Presiding Judge of the 304th Judicial District Court
Marty Grant
Official Court Reporter, 304th Judicial District Court
