                                            ORDER
       Appellant’s brief in this termination of parental rights case is overdue. Because these

types of cases must be handled expeditiously, appellant is ORDERED to file, within TEN

DAYS of the date of this order, both appellant’s brief and an extension motion. Failure to file the

brief and an extension motion by the time specified may result in an order for the trial court to

conduct a hearing to determine why appellant’s brief has not been filed and to take such

measures as may be necessary to assure effective representation, including appointment of new

counsel.
