IN THE INTEREST OF § Appeal from the
A.S.M., A CHILD. § 65th District Court
§ of El Paso County, Texas
§ (TC#2004CM737)
JUDGMENT
The Court has considered this cause on the record and concludes there was error in the
judgment. We therefore modify the judgment of the trial court to reflect that the attorney’s fees
awarded to Appellee be characterized as a judgment debt only, not as additional child support. The
judgment, as modified, is affirmed in all other respects.
We further order Appellant and his sureties, if any, see TEX. R. APP. P. 43.5., to perform
on the judgment and pay all costs of this appeal, in accordance with the opinion of this Court. This
decision shall be certified below for observance.
IT IS SO ORDERED THIS 30TH DAY OF JULY, 2021.
