LAURA ELIZABETH PILLANS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 259th District Court
Jones County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 022445
O R D E R
Appellant, Bryon Brandon Riggs, has filed a notice of appeal from an order granting a writ of habeas corpus for the return of a child. In response to this court’s inquiry concerning the jurisdiction of this court, appellant has notified this court that he “is solely appealing the award of attorney fees in this case” and that he “is not appealing the return of the child.” Based upon appellant’s statement, we hold that this court has jurisdiction to review the award of attorney’s fees. See Miericke v. Lemoine, 786 S.W.2d 810, 811 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1990, no writ).
