CHARTAMIA WASHINGTON, Appellant

V.

INSUREX, INC., Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 3

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 921854

Appellee, Insurex, Inc., filed a motion to dismiss for want of jurisdiction on October 30, 2008. Appellant, Chartamia Washington, has not filed a response.

Washington filed a claim in the Small Claims Court of Harris County against Insurex. The small claims court rendered summary judgment in favor of Insurex, dismissing Washington's claims. Washington appealed the Small Claims Court's ruling to Harris County Court at Law No. 3. The County Court at Law upheld the Small Claims Court's ruling.

The judgment of a county court at law, acting as an appellate court in an appeal from a case originating in small claims court, is final and may not be appealed to the courts of appeals. Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 28.053(d) (Vernon 2004); Sultan v. Matthew, 178 S.W.3d 747, 748 (Tex. 2005). Thus, we do not have jurisdiction over this case that originated in small claims court. Sultan, 178 S.W.3d at 748. We dismiss this appeal for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Alcala and Hanks.
