MEMORANDUM OPINION

DAVID PURYEAR, Justice.

Appellant has filed a notice of appeal from the trial court's orders dismissing his claims against appellees and severing those claims into a separate cause. Trial court cause number 239,717C (our cause number 03-09-00723-CV) is the severed cause of action in which the trial court's orders of dismissal are final and appealable. Appellant's claims against other defendants not dismissed from the suit are continuing in trial court cause number 222,223C (our cause number 03-09-00722-CV). Although there are two cause numbers pending in this Court, appellant is seeking to appeal from the same orders in both causes. We therefore consolidate the issues, records, and documents filed in cause number 03-009-00722-CV into cause 03-09-00723-CV. The consolidated causes will proceed under the style of cause 03-09-00723-CV, and cause 03-09-00722-CV is dismissed.
