COURT OF APPEALS
SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS
FORT WORTH
NO. 2-04-112-CV
PATRICIA A. RUDDER APPELLANT
V.
JAMES KYLE HANNAH APPELLEE
------------
FROM THE 153 RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY
------------
MEMORANDUM OPINION (footnote: 1) AND JUDGMENT
------------
Appellant Patricia A. Rudder appeals from the trial court’s interlocutory order implicitly denying in part her motion to compel discovery. The denial of a motion to compel discovery may be challenged by a petition for mandamus, (footnote: 2) but it is not an appealable interlocutory order. (footnote: 3) Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. (footnote: 4) Costs of the appeal shall be paid by Appellant, for which let execution issue.
