                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On March 3, 2022, the trial court signed a final order terminating the parent-

child relationship between T.H. and J.E. and between J.E. and J.E. On March 23,

2022, J.E. filed a motion for new trial. On May 4, 2022, the trial court signed an

order granting J.E.’s motion for new trial. On May 16, 2022, we abated the appeal

and remanded the case to the trial court and warned that unless we received a

supplemental clerk’s record containing a final, appealable order or judgment by June

24, 2022, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. To date, we have

                                         1
not received a supplemental clerk’s record. No party requested additional time to

obtain a final judgment or severance order.

      This Court lacks jurisdiction over interlocutory appeals of parental

termination decrees. See In re J.M.E., No. 04-21-00317-CV, 2021 WL 4875528, at

*1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio Oct. 20, 2021, no pet.). Accordingly, we dismiss the

appeal for lack of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 43.2(f).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
