DISMISS and Opinion Filed September 19, 2018
S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-18-00810-CV
SHERONDA WEBSTER, Appellant V. ELDORADO HEIGHTS SECTION II HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, INC., Appellee
On Appeal from the 401st Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 401-01874-2018
MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Evans, and Justice Brown Opinion by Chief Justice Wright The Court questioned its jurisdiction over this appeal as the clerk’s record contained an
order granting appellant’s motion for new trial. We instructed appellant to file, by August
27, 2018, a letter brief addressing the jurisdictional issue and cautioned her that failure to comply
may result in dismissal of the appeal without further notice. Appellant has not complied.
An order granting a new trial deprives an appellate court of jurisdiction over an
appeal. See Yan v. Jiang, 241 S.W.3d 930, 930 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2008, no pet.). The trial court
signed the judgment on May 15, 2018. Appellant filed a timely motion for new trial on May
24, 2018. The trial court signed an order granting the motion for new trial on August 10, 2018.
Because the trial court has granted a new trial, this Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).
