V.

MARK LAIR, Appellee

On Appeal from the 284th District Court Montgomery County, Texas Trial Cause No. 99-10-06301-CV

MEMORANDUM OPINION  

On July 20, 2006, the Court notified the parties that the appeal appeared to be interlocutory because the order did not dispose of all of the claims in controversy. No response has been filed.

The Court finds no final judgment has issued. Subject to certain statutory exceptions not applicable in this case, only final judgments are appealable. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. §§ 51.012, 51.014 (Vernon 1997 & Supp. 2006). Accordingly, we hold the jurisdiction over this case is still vested in the trial court. The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION.
