Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
July 9, 2014
No. 04-14-00435-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF J.R.P., Et al., Children,
From the 57th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2013-PA-01799
Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant J.R. seeks to appeal an order signed on June 3, 2014 terminating her parental
rights to her children, J.R.P., J.R., J.R., J.R.R., J.R.R., J.R.R., J.R., and J.R. The order is titled
“Interlocutory Order of Termination as to [J.R.]” and does not adjudicate the parental rights of
any of the children’s fathers. Thus, this order does not dispose of all parties, and no severance
order appears in the record. An order that does not dispose of all parties and causes of action is
not final and appealable. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 200 (Tex. 2001); City
of Beaumont v. Guillory, 751 S.W.2d 491, 492 (Tex. 1988).
It is therefore ORDERED that appellant J.R. show cause in writing within fourteen days
of the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All
appellate deadlines are suspended pending our determination of whether we have jurisdiction
over this appeal.
