11th Court of Appeals

Eastland, Texas

Memorandum Opinion

In the Interest of A.C.A., a child

            No. 11-05-00211-CV -- Appeal from Midland County

            On June 17, 2005, the trial court signed an order holding Armando Arballo in contempt of court and committing Arballo to the Midland County Jail. Arballo has filed a notice of appeal attempting to perfect the present appeal. We dismiss.

            An order of contempt and of commitment is not appealable and is properly challenged by an original proceeding pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 52.

            The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
