    EX PARTE G.R.G., A CHILD
    On Appeal from the 257th District Court
    Harris County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. 2021-14923
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    This is an attempted appeal from the denial of a petition for a writ of habeas
    corpus under section 157.372 of the Family Code. The record on appeal does not
    contain an order denying the petition, but appellant’s notice of appeal states the trial
    court orally denied the petition and a written order is pending signature. Appellant
    has also filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court regarding the denial. See
    In re N.B.G., No. 14-21-00150-CV.
    The Family Code does not authorize an appeal in this habeas corpus
    proceeding. Maadani v. Ward, 
    611 S.W.3d 460
    , 461 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th
    Dist.] 2020, no pet.) (per curiam). The only available review is through a petition for
    a writ of mandamus. See 
    id. at 462
    .
    On April 6, 2021, we notified the parties that this appeal would be dismissed
    for lack of jurisdiction unless any party files a response on or before April 16, 2021,
    showing meritorious grounds for continuing the appeal. No response was filed.
    We dismiss the appeal.
    PER CURIAM
    Panel consists of Justices Wise, Zimmerer, and Poissant.
