Opinion

No. 09-06-434 CV

Opinion Delivered November 9, 2006.

On Appeal from the 58th District Court, Jefferson County, Texas, Trial Cause No. a-176404.

Appeal Dismissed for Lack of Jurisdiction.

Before GAULTNEY, KREGER, and HORTON, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On October 19, 2006, the Court notified the parties that the appeal appeared to be interlocutory because the order did not dispose of all of the claims in controversy. The appellant filed a response but did not identify any grounds for exercise of appellate jurisdiction in this case.

The Court finds no final judgment has issued. Subject to certain statutory exceptions not applicable in this case, only final judgments are appealable. Tex. Civ. Prac. Rem. Code Ann. §§ 51.012, 51.014 (Vernon 1997 Supp. 2006). Accordingly, we hold the jurisdiction over this case is still vested in the trial court. The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
