                                Court of Appeals

                    Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont

                          IN THE INTEREST OF G.B.

__________________________________________________________________

                On Appeal from the 88th District Court
                       Hardin County, Texas
                       Trial Cause No. 62066
__________________________________________________________________

                                      ORDER

      On February 23, 2022, the associate judge signed an order terminating the

parental rights of B.B. and G.B. On February 22, 2022, G.B. filed a notice of appeal

to this Court and a request for a de novo hearing before the referring court. The date

the referring court signs a final order is the controlling date for the purposes of

appeal. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. § 201.016. “The appellate court may allow an

appealed order that is not final to be modified so as to be made final and may allow

the modified order and all proceedings relating to it to be included in a supplemental

record.” Tex. R. App. P. 27.2. Accordingly, we abate the appeal and remand the

                                          1
cause to the trial court. See id. Upon remand, the trial court may issue such further

orders or judgments necessary to create a final, appealable order in this cause. The

appeal will be reinstated without further order of this Court when the supplemental

clerk’s record containing the final order is filed with the appellate court. Unless a

final, appealable order or judgment is included in a supplemental clerk’s record and

filed with the clerk of this court on or before June 3, 2022, the appeal will be

reinstated and dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

      ORDER ENTERED May 4, 2022.
