MEMORANDUM OPINION


This is an attempted appeal from an order granting summary judgment, signed May 20, 2004. Appellant filed a motion for new trial on June 17, 2004 and a notice of appeal on August 16, 2004.

Appellee filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, claiming that the summary judgment is interlocutory because appellee's counterclaims against appellant are pending. Appellant agrees that the counterclaims remain pending and is unopposed to appellee's motion. The clerk's record confirms that the summary judgment is interlocutory.

Absent a statutory exception, an appellate court may not review an order that is not final. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). An order is not final for purposes of an appeal unless it actually disposes of every pending claim. Id. at 205.

Accordingly, we grant appellee's motion and order this appeal dismissed.
