                    Trial Court Cause No. CC-22-04461-D

                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
      Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Pedersen, III, and Justice Goldstein
                         Opinion by Chief Justice Burns
      It is well-settled that an appeal may only be taken from a final judgment that

disposes of all parties and claims or an interlocutory order as authorized by statute.

See Jack B. Anglin Co., Inc. v. Tipps, 842 S.W.2d 266, 272 (Tex. 1992). Because

the appealed order here–an interlocutory order denying appellant’s emergency

application for a temporary restraining order–is not an order authorized by statute to

be appealed, we questioned our jurisdiction over the appeal and directed appellant

to file a letter brief addressing our concern. See Nikolouzos v. St. Luke’s Episcopal

Hosp., 162 S.W.3d 678, 680 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2005, no pet.).
Although we cautioned appellant that failure to comply within ten days could result

in dismissal of the appeal without further notice, see TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a),(c), more

than ten days have passed and appellant has not complied. Accordingly, on the

record before us, we dismiss the appeal. See id. 42.3(a); Nikolouzos, 162 S.W.3d at

680.
