On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 2

Trial Court Cause No. CC-15-01563-B
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Molberg, and Justice Goldstein
Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
In her notice of appeal, appellant states she is appealing the receiver’s oath of
office that was filed in the trial court on May 13, 2021.1 The Court questioned its
jurisdiction over this appeal and directed appellant to file a letter brief addressing
our concern with an opportunity for appellee to file a response. Appellant complied.
Generally, appellate courts have jurisdiction only over appeals from final
judgments and certain interlocutory orders as permitted by statute. See Lehmann v.
Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001); TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE
1
Appellant has appealed the order appointing the receiver. That appeal is docketed as appellate cause
number 05-21-00175-CV.
ANN. § 51.014(a). A receiver’s oath of office is neither a final judgment nor an
appealable interlocutory order. Although appellant filed a letter brief, nothing
therein demonstrates that this Court has jurisdiction over this appeal.
We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).
