OLIVA GIL, Appellant
V.
CITY OF KAUFMAN, KAUFMAN COUNTY, KAUFMAN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL
DISTRICT, AND TRINITY VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT, Appellees
On Appeal from the 422nd Judicial District Court
Kaufman County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 102446-422
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Whitehill, and Justice Nowell
Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
We questioned our jurisdiction over this appeal from the trial court’s “final order” as the
clerk’s record did not reflect a final order, or any appealable order, had been signed. See Lehmann
v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001) (appeal may be taken only from final judgment
or appealable order). In a letter brief, filed at our request, appellant agrees we lack jurisdiction.
Because nothing before us demonstrates we have jurisdiction, we dismiss the appeal and
all pending motions. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).
