IN THE INTEREST OF M.H.E., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 429th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 429-55235-2011
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Bridges, Lang, and Schenck
Opinion by Justice Bridges
In a letter dated June 5, 2015, we questioned our jurisdiction over this appeal in light of the trial court's April 1, 2015 order granting a new trial with respect to child support enforcement. In response, appellant filed a letter confirming the trial court granted a new trial on the issue that was appealed.
An order granting a new trial deprives an appellate court of jurisdiction over the appeal. See Yan v. Jiang, 241 S.W.3d 930 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2008, no pet.) (per curiam). Accordingly, on the Court's own motion, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a). 150226F.P05
