MEMORANDUM OPINION
From the 198th Judicial District Court, Kerr County, Texas
Trial Court No. 16794B
Honorable Rex Emerson, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice Karen Angelini, Justice Irene Rios, Justice DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
Kenneth Brown and Laura Brown appeal the trial court's interlocutory order granting the Horizon Owner's Association, Inc.'s motion to compel arbitration and staying the proceedings in the trial court. A trial court's order compelling arbitration and staying proceedings in the district court is not subject to interlocutory appeal See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. § 171.098 (West 2011); see also Chambers v. O'Quinn, 242 S.W.3d 30, 31-32 (Tex. 2007) (per curiam) (explaining that neither the FAA nor the TAA allow interlocutory appeals from orders compelling arbitration). Therefore, the trial court's order is not an appealable interlocutory order, and this Court does not have jurisdiction over this interlocutory appeal. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. § 51.014 (West 2015), § 171.098.
On June 8, 2017, we ordered appellants to show cause in writing why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellants did not respond.
Therefore, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a). Costs of appeal are taxed against appellant.
