OPINION

FROST, Justice.

Morningstar Water Users Association, Inc. sought an order to restrain the' City of Farmington from invading the Morningstar water supply service territory. The sole question before us is whether the New Mexico Public Utility Commission (Commission) had jurisdiction to grant the order. We review this case under SCRA 12-102(A)(3) (Cum.Supp. 1995) and NMSA 1978, Section 62-11-1 (Repl.Pamp.1993), both of which provide for Supreme Court review of final orders by the Commission. We conclude the Commission had no such jurisdiction.
