in the Interest of R. A. Q.

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-10-00495-CV In the Interest of R. A. Q. FROM COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1 OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY NO. 09-3302-FC1, HONORABLE GEORGE E. HOLMES, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant John Mark Quaak and appellee the Office of the Attorney General have both filed motions to dismiss. Quaak contends that the entire cause should be dismissed because the OAG lacks standing to bring this case. We deny Quaak’s motion. The OAG contends that this appeal should be dismissed because Quaak on May 23, 2010, timely requested de novo review of the associate judge’s order, preventing the order from being final and appealable. We grant the OAG’s motion and dismiss this appeal. The cause may proceed at the trial court level. J. Woodfin Jones, Chief Justice Before Chief Justice Jones, Justices Puryear and Pemberton Dismissed on Appellee’s Motion Filed: December 15, 2010
