Javier Molina v. Hilda Molina
Javier Molina v. Hilda Molina
Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-19-00101-CV
Javier Molina, Appellant v. Hilda Molina, Appellee
FROM THE JUSTICE COURT PRECINCT 5 OF TRAVIS COUNTY NO. J5-CV-18-248681, THE HONORABLE NICHOLAS CHU, JUDGE PRESIDING
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant filed a notice of appeal from a judgment signed by the justice court on January 29, 2019. This Court, however, lacks jurisdiction over justice-court judgments. That jurisdiction lies in the county or district court. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 51.001 (appeal from justice court to county or district court); see also id. § 51.012 (appeal from district or county court to court of appeals). We therefore dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).
