Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH

NO. 2-10-039-CV

ESTATE OF DAVID LEE CARPENTER, SR., DECEASED

------------ FROM PROBATE COURT NO. 1 OF TARRANT COUNTY ------------ MEMORANDUM OPINION 1 ------------ Appellant Bob J. Shelton filed a notice of appeal from a January 12, 2010 order denying his Motion For Reconsideration of Sanctions. It appears that the trial court has not signed a final judgment or appealable interlocutory order. On March 2, 2010, we notified Appellant that unless he or any other party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response by March 12, 2010, showing grounds for continuing the appeal, we would dismiss the appeal. No response has been filed.

A party may appeal only from a final judgment or an interlocutory order specifically made appealable by statute or rule. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39  See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4.

S.W .3d 191, 195 & n.12 (Tex. 2001); see, e.g., Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(a) (Vernon 2008) (listing appealable interlocutory orders). Because the trial court has not signed a final judgment or appealable interlocutory order, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 43.2(f).

PER CURIAM PANEL: GARDNER, W ALKER, and MCCOY, JJ.
