PHUOC DANH, Appellant v. JESSICA PEREZ AND GEICO COUNTY MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellees

PER CURIAM

On Appeal from the 281st District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2017-49098

MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an attempted appeal from an order signed July 9, 2018. Generally, appeals may be taken only from final judgments. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). When orders do not dispose of all pending parties and claims, the orders remain interlocutory and unappealable until final judgment is rendered unless a statutory exception applies. Bally Total Fitness Corp. v. Jackson, 53 S.W.3d 352, 352 (Tex. 2001).

On August 23, 2018, appellee Jessica Perez filed a motion to dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction because the order is not final as it does not dispose of the other party, Geico County Mutual Insurance Company. More than ten days have passed, and appellant has not filed a response to appellee's motion.

The order granting summary judgment in this case is not a final judgment as it grants Perez's motion for summary judgment, but does not dispose of the remaining defendant. No statutory exception applies to this appeal. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Donovan, Wise, and Jewell.
