    In The

    NO. 14-18-00081-CV
    IN THE INTEREST OF K.A.M.P AND J.C.P, CHILDREN
    On Appeal from the 315th District Court
    Harris County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. 2015-06374J
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    This is an appeal from a judgment signed January 10, 2018. On February 13,
    2018, appellant, A.P., filed a motion to dismiss the appeal because the trial court had
    granted her motion for new trial. A supplemental clerk’s record has been filed
    reflecting the grant of a new trial.
    “Granting a new trial has the legal effect of vacating the original judgment
    and returning the case to the trial docket as though there had been no previous trial
    or hearing.” In re E.C., 
    431 S.W.3d 812
    , 815–16 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.]
    2014, orig. proceeding [mand. denied]). Therefore, there is no appealable judgment
    and we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(b).
    The appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
    PER CURIAM
    Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Christopher and Jamison
