TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-19-00910-CV
S. J., Appellant
v.
Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
FROM THE 146TH DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY
NO. 303,297-B, THE HONORABLE JACK WELDON JONES, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER
PER CURIAM
The reporter’s record in this appeal was originally due to be filed on
December 20, 2019. By request to this Court dated December 23, 2019, Betsy Clifton requested
an extension of time.
The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure prohibit this Court from granting
extensions of over 10 days for the filing of reporters’ records in accelerated appeals, including
those from suits for termination of parental rights. See Tex. R. App. P. 35.3(c). Further, any
extensions of time granted for the filing of the reporters’ records may not exceed 30 days
cumulatively. See Tex. R. App. P. 28.4(b)(2). Accordingly, Betsy Clifton is hereby ordered to
file the reporter’s record in this case on or before January 21, 2020. If the record is not filed by
that date, Clifton may be required to show cause why she should not be held in contempt of
court.
It is ordered on January 9, 2020.
Before Chief Justice Rose, Justices Baker and Triana
