Finding that there is no final judgment or appealable order, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. It is well settled that appellate courts have jurisdiction over final judgments and interlocutory orders made appealable by statute. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corporation, 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001); TEX.CIV.PRAC. & REM.CODE ANN. § 51.014 (authorizing appeals from certain interlocutory orders).

No statute authorizes an interlocutory appeal from an order disqualifying counsel. The Clerk of the Court sent Appellant notice that the Court intended to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because there is no final judgment or appealable order. Appellant did not file any response. Accordingly, we dismiss the attempted appeal for lack of jurisdiction. GINA M.
