MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Peña, West, and Fonseca
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Peña
This matter is before the Court on the Court’s own motion. On May 18, 2026,
appellants JP Lynx Capital Developments, LLC and Jose Pedraza Jr. filed a notice of
appeal attempting to appeal an order entitled “Final Judgment” signed on April 17, 2026,
in trial court cause no. C-4449-22-A. Upon review of the documents before the Court,
despite bearing the name “Final Judgment,” it appears that the order from which this
appeal was taken was not a final appealable order. “[A]n order or judgment is not final for
purposes of appeal unless it actually disposes of every pending claim and party or unless
it clearly and unequivocally states that it finally disposes of all claims and parties.”
Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 205 (Tex. 2001).
Upon review of the record, it appears that some parties and claims to the
underlying litigation remain pending before the trial court; specifically, there appears to be
no resolution of the claims brought by Rojo Investments, LLC in plaintiffs’ first amended
original petition. Based on the items in the appellate record, it appears there is not yet a
final, appealable judgment. Furthermore, on June 30, 2026, the trial court granted a
motion for new trial and vacated the order entitled “Final Judgment” signed on April 17,
2026. Accordingly, on August 3, 2026, the Clerk of the Court notified appellants that it
appears there is no final, appealable order. The Clerk of the Court also notified appellants
that if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of the notice, the appeal
would be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3 (b), (c).
To date, appellants failed to cure the defect and have not otherwise responded to
the clerk’s notices; accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution. See id.
L. ARON PEÑA JR.
Justice
Delivered and filed on the
19th day of August, 2026.
