    Fourth Court of Appeals

    No. 04-14-00276-CV
    Martin M. PARRA,
    Appellant
    v.
    TOYOTA MOTOR MANUFACTURING TEXAS, INC.,
    Appellee
    From the 408th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
    Trial Court No. 2013-CI-20505
    Honorable Gloria Saldana, Judge Presiding
    ORDER
    The clerk’s record was filed in this appeal on May 22, 2014. The clerk’s record contains
    appellant’s notice of appeal in which he states his intention to appeal the trial court’s March 24,
    2014 judgment compelling arbitration. The clerk’s record also contains a document entitled
    “Judge’s Notes” which are the trial court’s handwritten notations regarding a ruling made at a
    hearing. A judge’s handwritten notes are for his or her own convenience and form no part of the
    record. In re A.W., 
    384 S.W.3d 872
    , 873 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2012, no pet.). Accordingly,
    the “Judge’s Notes” contained in the clerk’s record is not a final, appealable order. In re L.H.,
    No. 04-13-00174-CV, 
    2013 WL 3804585
    , at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio July 17, 2013, no
    pet.). In response to an inquiry by the clerk’s office of this court, the trial court clerk stated that
    no order was signed in reference to the trial judge’s notes. It is therefore ORDERED that
    appellant show cause in writing within fifteen days of the date of this order why this appeal
    should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
