In re Debbie Cunningham
R. D. and S. C., Appellants
v.
Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee
FROM THE 22ND DISTRICT COURT OF HAYS COUNTY
NO. 2015-0550, HONORABLE CHARLES R. RAMSAY, JUDGE PRESIDING
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
PER CURIAM
This is a contempt proceeding ancillary to the appeal of R.D. and S.C. The
subject of this proceeding is court reporter Debbie Cunningham, who has failed to comply with
this Court’s order to file the reporter’s record.
On July 14, 2016, we ordered Cunningham to file the record by July 25, 2016,
and cautioned her that failure to file the record by that date could require her to show cause why
she should not be held in contempt of court.
Therefore, it is hereby ordered that Debbie Cunningham shall appear in person
before this Court on Wednesday, August 17, 2016, at 1:30 p.m., in the Third Court of Appeals
courtroom, located on the first floor of the Price Daniel, Sr. Building, 209 West 14th Street, in
Austin, Travis County, Texas, to show cause why she should not be held in contempt and have
sanctions imposed for her failure to obey our July 15, 2016 order. This order to show cause will
be withdrawn and Cunningham will be relieved of her obligation to appear before this Court as
ordered above if the Clerk of the Court receives the complete reporter’s record before Monday,
August 15, 2016.
It is ordered on August 2, 2016.
Before Chief Justice Rose, Justices Goodwin and Bourland
