No. 02-09-220-CV (Tex. App. Aug. 20, 2009)

Opinion

No. 02-09-220-CV

Delivered: August 20, 2009.

Appealed from the 89th District Court of Wichita County.

PANEL: GARDNER, WALKER, and McCOY, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Arturo Hernandez filed a notice of appeal from a June 17, 2009 order denying his Motion For Appointment of Counsel. It appears that the trial court has not signed a final judgment or appealable interlocutory order. On July 23, 2009, we notified Appellant that unless he or any other party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response by August 3, 2009, showing grounds for continuing the appeal, we would dismiss the appeal. Hernandez filed a response, but the response does not raise any grounds for continuing the appeal.

A party may appeal only from a final judgment or an interlocutory order specifically made appealable by statute or rule. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 n. 12 (Tex. 2001); see, e.g., Tex. Civ. Prac. Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014 (Vernon Supp. 2008) (listing appealable interlocutory orders). Because the trial court has not signed a final judgment or appealable interlocutory order, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 43.2(f).
