Court of Appeals Tenth Appellate District of Texas 10-26-00188-CV In the Interest of E.K.L., a Child On appeal from the 74th District Court of McLennan County, Texas Judge Peter Rusek, presiding Trial Court Cause No. 2026-620-3 JUSTICE SMITH delivered the opinion of the Court. MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant filed an appeal from a temporary order in a suit affecting the parent-child relationship under the Family Code. By letter dated May 15, 2026, the Clerk of this Court notified Appellant that the appeal is subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction and that the appeal would be dismissed unless a response was filed showing grounds for continuing the appeal. A response was filed on May 22, 2026, but it does not show any ground to continue the appeal. Temporary orders in proceedings relating to a child under the Family Code are not appealable. See TEX. FAM. CODE §105.001(e); see also Little v. Daggett, 858 S.W.2d 368, 369 (Tex. 1993) (orig. proceeding) (per curiam). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a). Appellant’s motion for emergency relief is dismissed as moot.
