A MINOR CHILD

                                          ------------

           FROM THE 323RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

managing conservatorship of her then seventeen-year-old son E.H. to the Texas

Department of Family and Protective Services. The trial court did not order

M.J. to pay child support. Because E.H.’s eighteenth birthday was on May 29,

2008, there is no longer any live dispute.2
