Kimberly Compton and Orlando Bell, Appellants

v.

Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 146TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 239,406-B, HONORABLE RICK MORRIS, JUDGE PRESIDING

O R D E R  

  PER CURIAM

The supplemental reporter's record in this appeal containing the transcript of the district court's October 19, 2011 hearing was due on November 8, 2011. This Court's clerk notified the reporter of the overdue supplemental record on March 5, 2012. The reporter did not respond to the overdue notice, and the record has not been filed.

Recent amendments to the rules of judicial administration accelerate the final disposition of appeals from suits for termination of parental rights. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a), available at http://www.supreme.courts.state.tx.us/MiscDocket/12/12903200.pdf (providing 180 days for court's final disposition). Accordingly, the court reporter for the 146th District Court, Lynette Thorpe, is ordered to file the supplemental reporter's record no later than April 27, 2012. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(a)(1). Failure to file the record will result in Thorpe being called before the Court to show cause why she should not be held in contempt for violating this order.

It is ordered March 28, 2012.
