TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-11-00804-CV |
Airickison Tavar Nelson a/k/a Erikson Nelson, Appellant
v.
Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
FROM THE 340th District Court OF Tom Green COUNTY, NO. C-10-0041-CPS, The Honorable Jay K. Weatherby, JUDGE PRESIDING |
O R D E R
PER CURIAM Appellant Airickison Tavar Nelson a/k/a Erikson Nelson filed his notice of appeal on November 28, 2011. The appellate record was complete April 12, 2012, making appellant=s brief due May 2, 2012. To date, appellant=s brief has not been filed. Recent amendments to the rules of judicial administration accelerate the final disposition of appeals from suits for termination of parental rights. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a), available at http://www.supreme.courts.state.tx.us/MiscDocket/12/12903200.pdf (providing 180 days for court’s final disposition). The accelerated schedule requires greater compliance with briefing deadlines. Therefore we order counsel to file appellant=s brief no later than May 29, 2012. If the brief is not filed by that date, counsel may be required to show cause why she should not be held in contempt of court. It is ordered on May 11, 2012.
Before Justices Puryear, Henson and Goodwin
