Cassandra L. LEIJA, Appellant v. Larry CHAPA Jr., Appellee
MEMORANDUM OPINION
From the 38th Judicial District Court, Uvalde County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2010-08-27,732-CV
Honorable Spencer Whitewood Brown, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice Karen Angelini, Justice Jason Pulliam, Justice DISMISSED
Appellant filed a notice of appeal from the trial court's entry of temporary orders in suit to modify parent-child relationship. The trial court's order, signed on November 18, 2015, states, "[t]hese temporary orders shall continue in force until the signing of the final order or until further order of this Court."
Temporary orders in suits affecting the parent-child relationship are not appealable; mandamus is an appropriate remedy to challenge. See Dancy v. Daggett, 815 S.W.2d 548, 549 (Tex.1991) (orig. proceeding); In re Herring, 221 S.W.3d 729, 730 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2007, orig. proceeding). On December 11, 2015, this court ordered appellant to show cause in writing within fifteen days from the date of the order why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c). Appellant has not responded to this court's order.
Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3.
