DISMISS and Opinion Filed February 27, 2018.

                                               In The
                                 Court of Appeals

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION
                           Before Justices Lang, Fillmore, and Schenck
                                     Opinion by Justice Lang
       By letter dated December 19, 2017, the Court questioned its jurisdiction over this appeal

because the clerk’s record did not contain a final judgment or other appealable order. We

instructed appellant to file a letter brief addressing our concern.

       Generally, this Court has jurisdiction over final judgments and certain interlocutory orders

as authorized by statute. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). A

final judgment is one that disposes of all parties and claims. See id.

       In a letter filed on January 23, 2018, appellant acknowledges receipt of this Court’s

December 19th letter. Appellant states in the letter that he has no knowledge of this appeal.

Appellant has not shown there is a final judgment or other appealable order for this Court to review.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).
