IN THE INTEREST OF P.P.G.
From the 224th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 1997-CI-06180
Honorable Larry Noll, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant's notice of appeal was filed late without a motion for extension of time to file the notice. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1, 26.3. On August 25, 2016, we ordered Appellant to file a written response presenting a reasonable explanation for the late notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3, 10.5(b)(1)(C); Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997).
On August 29, 2016, Appellant filed a written response explaining the late notice of appeal; our August 25, 2016 order is satisfied. See Garcia v. Kastner Farms, Inc., 774 S.W.2d 668, 670 (Tex. 1989) (noting a "reasonable explanation" comprises all but "deliberate or intentional noncompliance").
We reinstate the appellate timetable. The court reporter's record is due within TEN DAYS of the date of this order.
