Lewis Petro Properties,
Fourth Court of Appeals

No. 04-14-00899-CV
Laura Leticia Zepeda VASQUEZ, Individually and on behalf of the Estate of Jose Abraham
Vasquez,Jr.,
Appellants
v.
LEGEND NATURAL GAS III, LP; Legend Natural Gas, LLC; Lewis Energy Group, LP; and
Lewis Petro Properties, Inc,
Appellees
From the 81st Judicial District Court, La Salle County, Texas
Trial Court No. 14-07-00119-CVL
Honorable Stella Saxon, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant seeks to appeal the trial court’s November 20, 2014 “Order Granting All
Defendants’ TRCP 91a Motions to Dismiss.” Although the order states it grants “all
defendants’” motions to dismiss, the order specifically mentions only the motions to dismiss
filed by the following defendants: Legend Natural Gas III, LP; Legend Natural Gas, LLC; Lewis
Energy Group, LP; and Lewis Petro Properties, Inc. The order does not dispose of appellant’s
claims against the following other defendants: Rosetta Resources Operating, LP; Virtex
Holdings, LLP; Virtex Operating Co., Inc.; Enterprise Products Holdings LLC; Enterprise
Products Co.; and XTO Energy Inc. The clerk’s record does not contain any severance orders.
An order or judgment is final when it disposes of all claims asserted by and against all
parties. Martinez v. Humble Sand & Gravel, Inc., 875 S.W.2d 311, 312 (Tex. 1994); New York
Underwriters Ins. Co. v. Sanchez, 799 S.W.2d 677, 678-79 (Tex. 1990). Because it appears
appellant’s claims against other defendants remain pending, the trial court’s November 20, 2014
appears to be a non-appealable interlocutory order over which this court lacks jurisdiction.
Accordingly, appellant is hereby ORDERED to show cause in writing no later than
January 9, 2015 why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
