ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE  

PER CURIAM

This is a contempt proceeding ancillary to R. L.'s appeal from a juvenile delinquency proceeding. The subject of this proceeding is Kameron D. Johnson, appellant's counsel.

The time for filing appellant's brief in this cause was extended twice on counsel's motion. On November 13, 2001, in granting the second motion, this Court entered an order directing counsel to tender a brief on appellant's behalf no later than December 7, 2001, and notifying counsel that no further extensions would be granted. Counsel failed to file a brief as ordered.

It is hereby ordered that Kameron D. Johnson shall appear in person before this Court on February 6, 2002, at 8:30 a.m., in the courtroom of this Court, located in the Price Daniel, Sr. Building, 209 W. 14th Street, Austin, Travis County, Texas, to show cause why he should not be held in contempt and sanctions imposed for his failure to obey the November 13 order of this Court. This order to show cause will be withdrawn and Kameron D. Johnson will be relieved of his obligation to appear before this Court as above ordered if the Clerk of this Court receives appellant's brief by February 1, 2002.

It is ordered January 24, 2002.
