IN THE INTEREST OF R.M., N.M., N.M., AND K.O., CHILDREN
From the County Court at Law No. 1
Johnson County, Texas
Trial Court No. D201200053
ORDER
Appellant’s Motion to Extend Time to File Appellant’s Brief was filed on
November 20, 2013. Accelerated appeals in termination cases require strict adherence
to the shortened deadlines. Rule of Judicial Administration 6.2 states that in an appeal
of a suit for termination of the parent-child relationship or a suit affecting the parent-
child relationship filed by a governmental entity for managing conservatorship,
appellate courts should dispose of the appeal within 180 days of the date the notice of
appeal is filed. This deadline is not extended for delays or extensions in filing the
records or briefs of the parties.
Appellant’s motion is granted. However, no further extensions will be granted.
Appellant’s brief is due December 20, 2013. Appellant is reminded that the record
should be returned to the Court with appellant’s brief so that the appellee may timely
prepare its response.
