in the Interest of B.Z.B and B.Z.H ( 2022 )

Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-22-00100-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF B.Z.B AND B.Z.H., Children
From the 408th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2018EM507605
Honorable Eric J. Rodriguez, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Irene Rios, Justice
Delivered and Filed: April 27, 2022
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION
In an appeal filed on February 17, 2022, Appellant stated their intention to appeal the trial
court’s January 18, 2022 judgment. Subsequently, the trial court clerk notified this court that no
such order exists.
Generally, “an appeal may be taken only from a final judgment. A judgment is final for
purposes of appeal if it disposes of all pending parties and claims in the record, except as necessary
to carry out the decree.” Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). But “[t]he
intent to finally dispose of the case must be unequivocally expressed in the words of the order
itself.” Id. at 200.
On February 28, 2022, we ordered Appellant to show cause in writing by March 10, 2022,
why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a). We
04-22-00100-CV
warned Appellant that if they did not timely provide written proof as ordered, their appeal would
be dismissed. See id. To date, we have received no response.
Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. The court reporter’s notice of
late record is moot.
