IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS No. 10-11-00159-CV JESUS ALMANZA, D/B/A JESSE ALMANZA CONCRETE, Appellant v. TRACIE "OEHLER" KELLER D/B/A OEHLER PROPERTIES AND CHARLES THOMAS, INDIVIDUALLY AND AS CHARLES THOMAS HOMES, Appellees From the 361st District Court Brazos County, Texas Trial Court No. 10-000977-CVD-361 MEMORANDUM OPINION Jesus Almanza sued Tracie Oehler Keller and Charles Thomas. Thomas filed a motion for partial summary judgment which the trial court granted.1 Almanza appeals the trial court s order. Almanza s claims against Keller were previously dismissed, but Keller s claims against Almanza have not been dismissed. See Almanza v. Keller, No. 10-10-00419-CR, 2011 Tex. App. LEXIS 405 (Tex. App. Waco Jan. 19, 2011, no pet.) 1 By letter dated June 14, 2011, the Clerk of this Court notified Almanza that his appeal was subject to dismissal because the order did not appear to be a final, appealable order. Almanza was also warned that the appeal would be dismissed, unless within 21 days from the date of the letter, Almanza filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. Almanza filed a response but it does not show grounds for continuing the appeal. He contends that the trial court granted more relief than requested, and accordingly, the order could be reversed and remanded. As a general rule, an appeal may be taken only from a final judgment. See Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001). An order or judgment is final when it disposes of all parties and claims. Id. at 205. The order Almanza attempts to appeal does not dispose of Thomas s claims against Almanza. ( This Partial Summary judgment is not final as to any claims of Defendant THOMAS against Plaintiff Jesus Almanza d/b/a/ Jesse Almanza Concrete. ) Accordingly, the trial court s order granting partial summary judgment is not final, and Almanza may not appeal that order at this time. This appeal is dismissed. TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a).
