THOMAS G. BROWN D/B/A B & B CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, Appellant v. RICHARD CROW AND FIRST STATE BANK OF TEXAS, Appellees
On Appeal from the 86th Judicial District Court Kaufman County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 56,631
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Schenck, Osborne, and Reichek
Opinion by Justice Reichek
By this appeal, Thomas G. Brown d/b/a B & B Construction Company challenges the trial court's April 22, 2019 order granting in part and denying in part First State Bank of Texas's motion for summary judgment. Because the order did not dispose of all of Brown's claims against the Bank and did not address Brown's claims against Richard Crow, we questioned our jurisdiction over the appeal. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001) (subject to mostly statutory exceptions, appeals may only be taken from final judgments that dispose of all parties and claims). Both Brown and the Bank filed jurisdictional letter briefs, and neither disputes claims remain pending. Accordingly, because claims remain pending, we lack jurisdiction and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a); Lehmann, 39 S.W.3d at 195.
