IN THE ESTATE OF ALVILDA MAE AGUILAR, Deceased
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Anthony C. Aguilar and Michael A. Aguilar sought to appeal the probate court's January 27, 2016 Order Approving Final Account. After reviewing the record and appellant's arguments, we concluded the trial court's January 27, 2016 order was not final and that this court lacks appellate jurisdiction. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001); In re Estate of Scott, 364 S.W.3d 926, 927 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2012, no pet.); Bozeman v. Kornblit, 232 S.W.3d 261 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2007, no pet.).
We conditionally granted the Aguilars' request to construe their notice of appeal as a petition for a writ of mandamus and ordered them to file a petition complying with rule 52.3 of the Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure by July 7, 2016. We advised appellants that failure to comply with our order would result in this proceeding being dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. The Aguilars have not filed a petition for a writ of mandamus, but filed instead an unopposed motion to dismiss the appeal. We therefore dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
