Peyton Yates Freiman v. Aames Capital Corporation ( 2011 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-11-00024-CV
Bob E. Woody and The Ranch, L.L.C., Appellants // J. Black’s, L.P. and J. Black’s, G.P.,
L.L.C., Cross-Appellants
v.
J. Black’s, L.P. and J. Black’s, G.P., L.L.C., Appellees // Bob E. Woody and The Ranch,
L.L.C., Cross-Appellees
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 345TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. D-1-GN-09-001436, HONORABLE JOHN K. DIETZ, JUDGE PRESIDING
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellees J. Black’s, L.P. and J. Black’s G.P., L.L.C. have filed a motion to dismiss
this appeal and their own cross-appeal, asserting that the trial court has granted a motion for new trial
in this cause and that no final or otherwise appealable order has been issued. In their written
response to this motion, appellants Bob E. Woody and The Ranch, L.L.C. agree that the trial court
has not yet rendered a final judgment and that the notice of appeal is premature. This Court’s
jurisdiction is limited to the review of final judgments and certain interlocutory orders signed by the
trial court. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. §§ 51.012, .014 (West 2008); see also
Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). Accordingly, we grant the appellees’
motion and dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
