Delivered and Filed: August 19, 2015

           I do not believe the trial court had temporary emergency jurisdiction under Section

152.204(a) of the Texas Family Code because the record does not demonstrate that the children

were subjected to or threatened with mistreatment or abuse. Therefore, I respectfully dissent.

                                                          Jason Pulliam, Justice
