This Court has jurisdiction of all civil cases within its district. See TEX. GOV. CODE ANN. § 22.220(a). The counties within the Court’s district include Collin, Dallas, Grayson, Hunt, Kaufman, and Rockwall. See id. § 22.201(f). Because Cherokee County is within the Twelfth Court of Appeals’ district, see id. § 22.201(m), we questioned our jurisdiction over this appeal. In response, appellant filed a letter acknowledging we lack jurisdiction.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).
