  THE STATE OF TEXAS FOR THE BEST INTEREST AND PROTECTION OF S.W.

                       From the Probate Court No 1, Bexar County, Texas
                                Trial Court No. 2015-MH-2544
                                 Kelly Cross, Judge Presiding

                                         ORDER
        Appellant’s briefs were originally due on September 7, 2015 and September 8, 2014,
respectively. On September 22, 2015, this court granted appellant’s motions for an extension of
time in which to file a brief and motions to consolidate the appeals. In that order, we ordered
appellant’s retained attorney, Mr. Michael S. Raign, to file appellant’s brief no later than October
8, 2015. Our order also stated that, because these are accelerated appeals, no further extensions
of time would be granted absent extenuating circumstances. Mr. Raign has not filed appellant’s
brief.

       Accordingly, Mr. Raign is hereby ORDERED to show cause in writing, no later than
November 2, 2015, why these appeals should not be dismissed for want of prosecution. See TEX.
R. APP. P. 38.8(a).

        The Clerk of this court shall cause a copy of this order to be served on Mr. Raign by
certified mail, return receipt requested, and by United States mail.
