Fourteenth Court of Appeals NO. 14-18-00081-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF K.A.M.P AND J.C.P, CHILDREN

On Appeal from the 315th District Court Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2015-06374J

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an appeal from a judgment signed January 10, 2018. On February 13, 2018, appellant, A.P., filed a motion to dismiss the appeal because the trial court had granted her motion for new trial. A supplemental clerk’s record has been filed reflecting the grant of a new trial.

“Granting a new trial has the legal effect of vacating the original judgment and returning the case to the trial docket as though there had been no previous trial or hearing.” In re E.C., 431 S.W.3d 812, 815–16 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.]

2014, orig. proceeding [mand. denied]). Therefore, there is no appealable judgment and we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(b).

The appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Christopher and Jamison
