MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 31, 2015, Michelle James filed a notice of appeal in a case that has
been referred to arbitration. We notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not
apparent from the notice of appeal and that the appeal would be dismissed for want
of jurisdiction unless we received a response showing grounds for continuing the
appeal. The appellant’s response was due August 24, 2015, but no response has
been filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.

Generally, an appeal may be taken only from a final judgment, Lehmann v.
Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). We dismiss the appeal without
reference to the merits. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
APPEAL DISMISSED.
