Stephan Ricks, Appellant v. Veronica Dorsey, Appellee (2017)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Stephan Ricks attempted to appeal from the decision of an administrative law judge.¹ However, we may not exercise appellate jurisdiction without a final judgment or otherwise appealable order. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 51.014; Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001).

On February 28, 2017, the Clerk of this Court sent a letter notifying Ricks that it was unclear whether we had jurisdiction in this matter, requesting that he provide a response to the jurisdictional issue by March 10, 2017, and cautioning that failure to file the response could result in dismissal of this appeal. No response was filed.

The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).
