 FIRST COMMONWEALTH BANK AND
 SAMUEL J. DALESSIO                                No. 1729 WDA 2018
               Appeal from the Order Entered October 31, 2018
               in the Court of Common Pleas of Indiana County
                    Civil Division at No(s): 10772 CD 2018
BEFORE: OTT, J., KUNSELMAN, J., and MUSMANNO, J.

MEMORANDUM BY MUSMANNO, J.:                             FILED JULY 22, 2019

       Douglas Dalessio, individually and as Trustee of the Dalessio Family

Trust ("the Trust"), Devin Dalessio and Dylan Dalessio, individually and as

beneficiaries of the Dalessio Family Trust (collectively, "Plaintiffs"), appeal

from   the Order    sustaining the    Preliminary Objections filed     by   First

Commonwealth Bank ("the Bank"), and dismissing the Complaint as to the

Bank. We quash the appeal.

       On May 7, 2018, Plaintiffs filed a four -count Complaint against the Bank

and Samuel J. Dalessio ("Dalessio") alleging various causes of action.        In

particular, Plaintiffs alleged that Dalessio tendered checks to the Bank, which
J -A14042-19


the Bank honored, even though the checks were endorsed to the Trust, and

not Dalessio. On May 25, 2018, the Bank filed Preliminary Objections to the

Complaint, to which Plaintiffs filed a Response. On October 31, 2018, the trial

court entered an Order that provided, in relevant part, as follows: "Defendant

First Commonwealth Bank's Preliminary Objections are SUSTAINED, and

Plaintiffs' Complaint is DISMISSED with respect to First Commonwealth Bank."

Trial Court Order, 10/31/18 (emphasis in original). Thereafter, Plaintiffs filed

the instant timely appeal, followed by a court -ordered Pa.R.A.P. 1925(b)

Concise Statement of matters complained of on appeal.

      Before we may entertain the merits of Plaintiffs' underlying claim, we

must first determine whether this Court has jurisdiction to consider the appeal.

See Commonwealth v. Davis, 176 A.3d 869, 873 (Pa. Super. 2017)
recognizing that this Court may raise the issue of jurisdiction sua sponte).

Generally, "an appeal may be taken as of right from any final order of a ...

trial court." Pa.R.A.P. 341(a). A "final order" is defined, in relevant part, as

"any order that ... disposes of all claims and of all parties." Pa.R.A.P. 341(b)

(emphasis added).       "[O]rders [sustaining]     preliminary objections and

disposing of only some but not all of the underlying parties ... are interlocutory

and unappealable." Spuglio v. Cugini, 818 A.2d 1286, 1287 (Pa. Super.
2003).

      Here, the trial court's Order sustained the Bank's Preliminary Objections,

and dismissed the Complaint "with respect to First Commonwealth Bank."

J -A14042-19


Trial Court Order, 10/31/18.       Because the trial court did not dismiss the
Complaint as to Dalessio, the trial court's Order is interlocutory and not
appealable. See Spuglio, 818 A.2d at 1287. Consequently, we quash the

appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

      Appeal quashed.



Judgment Entered.
