Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-24-00241-CV

Elizabeth LEAL and All Other Occupants, Appellant

v.

SCG LASSES TOWNHOMES, LLC Successor-in-Interest to Lasses 44, LLC, d/b/a The Townes, Appellee

From the County Court at Law No. 10, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2024CV02045 Honorable Cesar Garcia, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Irene Rios, Justice Beth Watkins, Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice

Delivered and Filed: June 5, 2024

DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

Our appellate jurisdiction is generally limited to review of final judgments and

interlocutory orders that are made appealable by statute. See, e.g., CMH Homes v. Perez, 340

S.W.3d 444, 447 (Tex. 2011). Here, appellant seeks to appeal a March 28, 2024 “Order for

Immediate Issuance of a Writ of Possession.” See TEX. R. CIV. P. 510.9(c)(5)(B)(iv). The

challenged order specifies, “Plaintiff’s claims for rent and other damages are reserved for the time

of trial.” Accordingly, the order does not appear to be a final judgment that disposes of all pending

claims between the parties. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). The 04-24-00241-CV

order also does not appear to be an appealable interlocutory order, see TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM.

CODE ANN. § 51.014(a), and the rules applicable to forcible detainer suits do not otherwise provide

a mechanism for the appeal of such an order. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 510.9(c)(5).

On April 15, 2024, we ordered appellant to show cause in writing by April 30, 2024 why

this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant did not file a response to our

order. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
