1. ““The husband’s plea in abatement and the plea of res judicata were prematurely urged at the hearing for temporary orders, rather than at the trial upon the merits. He has endeavored to try and terminate the case on the merits at the hearing for the temporary orders. Article 4662, Vernon’s Ann.Civ.St., grants the husband the right of appeal with respect to the temporary injunctive features of the case, but not to the other interlocutory orders. The appeal on the temporary injunction in no way carried with it a right for the husband to appeal with respect to his plea in abatement and the plea of res judicata by reason of an earlier divorce action.
