MEMORANDUM OPINION1 ----------

We have considered the “Petition for Permission to Appeal Interlocutory Order” filed by Charles F. Stark, Barron, Stark & Swift Consulting Engineers, L.P., and Centurion American Construction Enterprises, L.L.C. Given the requirement that we strictly construe section 51.014, we decline to entertain this appeal, and we hereby dismiss it. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(d)–(f) (West 2015); Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f); Rogers v. Orr, 408 S.W.3d 640, 642 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2013, pet. denied) (“We strictly construe a statute authorizing an interlocutory appeal because it is an exception to the general rule that only final judgments are appealable.”).
