Bob Karim & Associates, L.P., Appellant

V.

American First National Bank, Appellee

 

 

On Appeal from the 157th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Case No. 2008-46432-A

 

 

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          This is an attempted appeal from a February 19, 2010 interlocutory summary judgment.

On July 28, 2010, the Clerk of this Court notified the parties that it appeared that the February 19, 2010 summary judgment was not a final judgment.  See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.12 (Vernon Supp. 2009) (“In a civil case in which the judgment or amount in controversy exceeds $250, exclusive of interest and costs, a person may take an appeal or writ of error to the court of appeals from a final judgment of the district or county court.”).  The parties were given until August 23, 2010, to file a response demonstrating this Court’s jurisdiction over the case.  The parties were notified that the appeal was subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3 (allowing involuntary dismissal of appeal).  The parties did not respond, and we know of no statute authorizing an appeal from such an interlocutory order.

We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
