KAELEFF THOMAS KUSPA, Appellant

V.

JESSICA P. KUSPA, Appellee

On Appeal from the 324th District Court Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court No. 324-739209-23

Before Bassel, Womack, and Wallach, JJ. Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Kaeleff Thomas Kuspa attempts to appeal from the trial court’s June

6, 2025 “Order Granting Petitioner’s Emergency Motion to Secure Property.” On

June 12, 2025, we notified Appellant of our concern that we lack jurisdiction over this

appeal because the order did not appear to be a final judgment or appealable

interlocutory order. We warned Appellant that unless he or any party desiring to

continue the appeal filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal, we

could dismiss it for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 44.3. We

received no response.

Generally, appeals may be taken only from final judgments. See Lehmann v.

Har–Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). Interlocutory orders may be appealed

only if allowed by statute. Bally Total Fitness Corp. v. Jackson, 53 S.W.3d 352, 352 (Tex.

2001).

We have confirmed that the underlying divorce proceeding remains pending.

Because the trial court has not signed a final judgment or an appealable interlocutory

order in this case, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P.

42.3(a), 43.2(f).
