MEMORANDUM OPINION1

We have considered the “Petition for Permission to Appeal Interlocutory

L.P., and Centurion American Construction Enterprises, L.L.C. Given the

requirement that we strictly construe section 51.014, we decline to entertain this

§ 51.014(d)–(f) (West 2015); Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f); Rogers v. Orr, 408 S.W.3d

640, 642 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2013, pet. denied) (“We strictly construe a

statute authorizing an interlocutory appeal because it is an exception to the
