JEREMY JAMES GILLETTE, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS
On Appeal from the 235th District Court
Cooke County, Texas
Trial Court No. CR19-00911
Before Womack, Wallach, and Walker, JJ.
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Womack
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant Jeremy James Gillette attempts to appeal the trial court’s “Agreed
Order Substituting Counsel.” On September 8, 2021, we notified Gillette of our
concern that we lack jurisdiction over his appeal because the trial court has not
entered any appealable orders. See McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex. App.—
Fort Worth 1996, no pet.) (per curiam) (holding that a court of appeals generally only
has jurisdiction to consider an appeal by a criminal defendant where there has been a
judgment of conviction). We informed Gillette that we could dismiss his appeal for
want of jurisdiction unless he or any party desiring to continue the appeal filed a
response by September 20, 2021, showing grounds for continuing the appeal. See Tex.
R. App. P. 43.2(f), 44.3. Gillette has not filed a response. Accordingly, we dismiss his
appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f); McKown, 915 S.W.2d
at 161.
