Donald William FLETCHER et al, Appellant

v.

TOSCANO PROPERTIES, Appellee

From the County Court At Law No. 10, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2020CV05146 Honorable John Longoria, Judge Presiding

ORDER On January 14, 2022, appellant filed a notice of appeal stating his intent to appeal his eviction. The clerk’s record was filed on March 10, 2022. The clerk’s record did not contain a final order or judgment. In response to this court’s inquiry, the trial court clerk confirmed the trial court has not signed a final order or judgment. “[A]n appeal may be prosecuted only from a final judgment.” N.E. Indep. Sch. Dist. v. Aldridge, 400 S.W.2d 893, 895 (Tex. 1966). Because no final order or judgment has been entered in the underlying case, appellant is ORDERED to show cause in writing no later than March 25, 2022 why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
