            Appellant,
Bryon Brandon Riggs, has filed a notice of appeal from an order granting a writ
of habeas corpus for the return of a child.  In response to this court’s
inquiry concerning the jurisdiction of this court, appellant has notified this
court that he “is solely appealing the award of attorney fees in this case” and
that he “is not appealing the return of the child.”  Based upon appellant’s
statement, we hold that this court has jurisdiction to review the award of
attorney’s fees.  See Miericke v. Lemoine, 786 S.W.2d 810, 811 (Tex.
App.—Dallas 1990, no writ).
