NUMBER 13-17-00287-CV (Tex. App. Jul. 7, 2017)

Opinion

NUMBER 13-17-00287-CV

07-07-2017

IN THE INTEREST OF M.V. & N.V., CHILDREN


On appeal from the 36th District Court of Bee County, Texas.

ORDER

Before Justices Rodriguez, Contreras, and Benavides
Order Per Curiam

This cause is before the Court on appellant's amended motion for extension of time to file her brief. Appellant's brief was due on July 3, 2017. On July 3, 2017, appellant's counsel filed the present motion requesting an extension to file her brief until July 13, 2017.

This Court, having fully examined and considered appellant's motion is of the opinion that, in the interest of justice, appellant's amended motion for extension of time to file her brief should be granted with order. The Court, however, requires strict adherence to the briefing rules in appeals of parental termination cases, such as this appeal, and looks with disfavor upon the delay caused by such extension requests. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.6; see also id. at R. 28.4.

The Court GRANTS appellant's amended motion for extension of time and will extend appellant's deadline to file her brief until July 13, 2017. Further motions for extension of time will not be favorably entertained by this Court, absent extraordinary circumstances.

PER CURIAM Delivered and filed the 7th day of July, 2017.
