Absent a final judgment or other appealable order, this court has no jurisdiction. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2).

Accordingly, it is ORDERED that appellant show cause in writing within fifteen (15) days from the date of this order why this appeal should be not dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All appellate deadlines in this appeal are suspended pending further order of the court.
