Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-24-00023-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF G.T., a Child
From the 45th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2022EM501625 Honorable Marisa Flores, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice Liza A. Rodriguez, Justice Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice
Delivered and Filed: April 3, 2024
DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
On January 8, 2024, appellant filed a notice of appeal seeking to challenge an interlocutory
order. “Appellate courts have jurisdiction to consider immediate appeals of interlocutory orders
only if a statute explicitly provides appellate jurisdiction.” Stary v. DeBord, 967 S.W.2d 352, 352-
53 (Tex. 1998). Because no statute explicitly authorizes an appeal from the interlocutory order in
question—an order denying a motion to vacate an order confirming child support arrearage—we
ordered appellant to show cause in writing why we have jurisdiction over this appeal. Appellant
filed a response, but it fails to establish our jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, this appeal
is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
