                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On July 31, 2015, Michelle James filed a notice of appeal in a case that has

been referred to arbitration. We notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not

apparent from the notice of appeal and that the appeal would be dismissed for want

of jurisdiction unless we received a response showing grounds for continuing the

appeal. The appellant’s response was due August 24, 2015, but no response has

been filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.

                                          1
      Generally, an appeal may be taken only from a final judgment, Lehmann v.

Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). We dismiss the appeal without

reference to the merits. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
