Interlocutory Appeal of Special Appearance Order Dismissed After Merger into Final Judgment

The Fifteenth Court of Appeals dismissed an interlocutory appeal by Primexx Energy Opportunity Fund entities challenging a Business Court order granting special appearances after the appellants notified the court that the interlocutory order had merged into a final judgment now subject to separate appeal under cause No. 15-25-00120-CV. The dismissal illustrates the application of merger doctrine when a trial court renders final judgment while an interlocutory appeal remains pending.
