No. 05-06-01139-CV.
Opinion Filed February 15, 2007.
On Appeal from County Court at Law No. 4, Dallas County, Texas, Trial Court Cause No. CC-05-14677-D.
Before Chief Justice THOMAS and Justices BRIDGES and FITZGERALD.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On August 23, 2006, appellant filed a notice of appeal in this case indicating that it was appealing the trial court's August 11, 2006 "appealable order." Neither, the clerk's record filed on November 16, 2006 nor the supplemental clerk's record filed on November 29, 2007, contained a copy of a final judgment or an appealable interlocutory order dated August 11, 2006. Although there is a docket entry dated August 11, 2006, there is not a signed order.
By letter dated January 3, 2007, we directed appellant to file a letter brief regarding this Court's jurisdiction by January 10, 2007. Appellant did not respond.
Appellate courts have jurisdiction over final judgments and such interlocutory orders as the legislature deems appealable. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001); Ruiz v. Ruiz, 946 S.W.2d 123, 124 (Tex.App.-El Paso 1997, no writ). A docket entry does not constitute a final judgment or other appealable order. See In re Burlington Coat Factory Warehouse of McAllen, Inc., 167 S.W.3d 827, 831 (Tex. 2005) (orig. proceeding).
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
