Opinion
No. 04-14-00510-CV

From the 150th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2014-CI-04491
Honorable Michael E. Mery, Judge Presiding
ORDER
Appellant Mark Villarreal seeks to appeal the denial of his petition for expunction. Although the reporter's record reflects that the trial court orally denied the petition at the conclusion of a hearing on June 5, 2014, it appears that a final order or judgment has not been signed by the trial court. The trial court clerk has filed a notification of late record stating that it is unable to file the record because a final order has not been signed.
Absent a written appealable interlocutory order or final judgment, this court has no jurisdiction over this appeal. See Ogletree v. Matthews, 262 S.W.3d 316, 319 n.1 (Tex. 2007); Lehmann v. Har Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001); Northeast Indep. Sch. Dist. v. Aldridge, 400 S.W.2d 893, 895 (Tex. 1966).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that appellant show cause in writing within fifteen days of the date of this order why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All appellate deadlines in this appeal are suspended pending further order of the court.
