San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-25-00680-CV

TRANSPORTES QUINTANILLA, S.A. DE C.V.,
Appellant

v.

CALAVO GROWERS, INC.,
Appellee

From the 406th Judicial District Court, Webb County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2018CVH000785-D4
Honorable David E. Garcia, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Adrian A. Spears II, Justice
H. Todd McCray, Justice
Velia J. Meza, Justice

Delivered and Filed: November 19, 2025

DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

On October 23, 2025, appellant filed a notice of appeal stating its intent to appeal from the

trial court’s order granting appellee’s motion for summary judgment. On October 24, 2025,

appellant informed this court that when appellant filed its notice of appeal, it believed that the trial

court’s order was a final judgment. However, it has since learned that appellee has a pending claim

for attorney’s fees as a prevailing party pursuant to chapter 134 of the Texas Civil Practice and

Remedies Code. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 134.005(b) (“Each person who prevails in a
04-25-00680-CV

suit under this chapter shall be awarded court costs and reasonable and necessary attorney’s fees.”).

Thus, the trial court’s order is interlocutory, and we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. See Rush

Truck Ctrs. of Tex., L.P. v. Sayre, 718 S.W.3d 233, 237 (Tex. 2025).

We dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
