Debbie Autrey, Clerk

Sixth Court of Appeals

100 N. State Line Ave., Ste. 20

Texarkana, Texas 75501

re: No. 06–15–00043–CV

Style: In re J.M.T.P. and M.D.A.P., Children

Dear Ms. Autrey:

I am writing to inform the Court that the Attorney General waives the filing of a

response in the cause noted above.

The Office of the Attorney General concedes that there is no record evidence to show

that the trial court considered appellant’s request for participation at the May 5, 2015

hearing by other means. See In re R.C.R. , 230S.W.3d 423, 426 (Tex. App.—Fort

Worth 2007, no pet.) (inmate who presents substantial claim but fails to prove that he

is entitled to attend substantive hearing in person still entitled to participate by

alternative means if requested).

The Office of the Attorney General concedes only the above stated error. Because

such error requires reversal of the trial court’s judgment, the Office of the Attorney

General respectfully requests that this Court limit its opinion to this sole issue. If this

Court makes additional holdings outside this issue, the Office of the Attorney General

may be compelled to file a motion for rehearing or seek additional relief.

Sincerely,

Deterrean Gamble

Assistant Attorney General
