Memorandum Opinion Delivered and Filed January 26, 2006.
On Appeal from the 357th District Court of Cameron County, Texas.
Before Chief Justice VALDEZ and Justices HINOJOSA and GARZA.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Chemject International, Inc. ("Chemject"), has filed two separate notices of appeal from the same underlying trial court cause. Appellant and appellee, Southwestern Bell Telephone Company, have filed a joint motion to dismiss Chemject's initial appeal, filed December 29, 2004, for want of jurisdiction and to assign a new case number to Chemject's second and subsequent appeal, filed on June 20, 2005. The parties admit that the first appeal is from a non-final and otherwise non-appealable order. The parties request dismissal of the interlocutory appeal and assignment of a new cause number to the subsequent appeal in order to clarify the court files and avoid confusion.
We grant the parties' motion. See Tex.R.App.P. 42.1. Chemject's initial appeal is hereby dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Chemject's second notice of appeal, filed June 20, 2005, is assigned a new appellate cause number, 13-06-032-CV. Any further filings regarding this appeal should be made in the new cause. The Court will entertain any properly filed motion requesting the transfer of records from this dismissed appeal to the appeal under the newly assigned cause number.
It is so ordered.
