28 2011 2012 44 02 2006 v. 02 11 00230 CV 2011 WL 3672035 18 2011 43 (2012)

Court of Appeals of Texas, Waco.

On December 28, 2011, we notified Farias of our concern that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal and informed him that the appeal may be dismissed for want of jurisdiction unless he or any party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response with the court by January 9, 2012, showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  Farias filed a response, but it does not show grounds for continuing the appeal.  We generally have jurisdiction to consider an appeal by a criminal defendant only from a judgment of conviction.  See Tex.Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 44.02 (West 2006);  McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex.App.—Fort Worth 1996, no pet.).  We have no jurisdiction over post-conviction writs of habeas corpus in felony cases, including appeals involving requests for a free record to pursue a post-conviction writ of habeas corpus.  See Tex.Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 11.07 (West Supp.2011);  Peters v. State, No. 02–11–00230–CV, 2011 WL 3672035, at *1 (Tex.App.—Fort Worth Aug. 18, 2011) (mem. op., not designated for publication).  We dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.  See Tex.R.App. P. 43.2(f).
