in the Interest of D.J., a Child

In The
Court of Appeals
Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo
Nos. 07-18-00386-CV
07-19-00040-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF D.J., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 320th District Court
Potter County, Texas
Trial Court No. 80596-D, Honorable Don Emerson, Presiding
January 14, 2019
ORDER OF SEVERANCE
Before CAMPBELL and PIRTLE and PARKER, JJ.
The maternal grandparents of D.J. each timely filed notices of appeal from the trial
court’s order dismissing them as conservators of the child. The child’s maternal
grandfather, J.S., has filed a brief on the merits. The child’s maternal grandmother, F.S.,
was appointed an attorney who has filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967).
Because the nature of our review of Anders cases is substantially different than
the nature of our review of a brief on the merits, we believe that it is appropriate to sever
the appeals. Thus, by order of this Court, F.S.’s appeal is severed into cause number 07-
19-0040-CV. To effectuate this severance, F.S.’s brief and all related filings as well as a
copy of the appellate record will be refiled in cause number 07-19-0040-CV by the Clerk
of this Court.
