TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                          JUDGMENT RENDERED APRIL 21, 2023

                                      NO. 03-22-00383-CV

                                         C. G., Appellant

                                                 v.

         Texas Department of Family and Protective Services and R. H., Appellees

          APPEAL FROM THE 428TH DISTRICT COURT OF HAYS COUNTY
          BEFORE CHIEF JUSTICE BYRNE, JUSTICES TRIANA AND SMITH
            VACATED AND DISMISSED -- OPINION BY JUSTICE SMITH

This is an appeal from the orders of termination signed by the associate judge and the district

court on June 28, 2022, and November 30, 2022. Having reviewed the record, it appears that the

lower courts lacked subject matter jurisdiction to sign those orders. Therefore, the Court vacates

the orders of termination and dismisses the cause for want of jurisdiction. The Department of

Family and Protective Services shall pay all costs relating to this appeal, both in this Court and in

the court below.
