MEMORANDUM OPINION1
----------
Pro se appellant Dwight E. Brown attempts to appeal the trial court’s
August 7, 2017 orders. On October 20, 2017, we sent Brown a letter, informing
him of our concern that we lacked jurisdiction over the appeals because the trial
court had not entered any appealable orders and because we generally have
1
See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4.
jurisdiction to consider an appeal in a criminal case only from a judgment of
conviction. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1); McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160,
161 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 1996, no pet.). We informed Brown that unless he
or any party desiring to continue the appeals filed a response showing grounds
for continuing the appeals by October 30, 2017, we would dismiss the appeals
for want of jurisdiction.
Brown has filed no response. Accordingly, we dismiss his appeals for
want of jurisdiction. See McKown, 915 S.W.2d at 161; see also Tex. R. App. P.
43.2(f).
