No. 06-05-00052-CV

Submitted: April 25, 2005.

Decided: April 26, 2005.

On Appeal from the County Court at Law #2, Gregg County, Texas, Trial Court No. 2004-1861-CCL2.

Before MORRISS, C.J., ROSS and CARTER, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellants, Oscar Wardon Still, Future Income, L.L.C., Rabbit Creek Mountain Mud Blast, Rabbit Creek ATV-RV Park, and East Texas All Terrain Monsters, filed a notice of appeal March 24, 2005, attacking the trial court's findings of fact and conclusions of law entered March 22, 2005.

In the underlying case, the merits of which are still pending before this Court, Eastman Chemical Company moved this Court to enforce the trial court's temporary injunction and find the appellants in contempt for violation of that injunction. See Still v. Eastman Chem. Co., No. 06-04-00122-CV. We abated the case to the trial court for its findings of fact and conclusions of law. It is from these findings of fact and conclusions of law that Still, et al., attempt to appeal. On April 13, 2005, based on the trial court's findings of fact and conclusions of law, we granted Eastman Chemical Company's motion for enforcement of the trial court's temporary injunction and for contempt.

The trial court's findings of fact and conclusions of law do not constitute a final, appealable order. Unless otherwise statutorily authorized, an appeal may be made only from a final judgment. See Tex. Civ. Prac. Rem. Code Ann. § 51.012 (Vernon 1997), § 51.014 (Vernon Supp. 2004-2005). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
