In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana _________________________ No. 06-12-00183-CR ______________________________

DAVID MATTHEW HEFLEY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court at Law Bowie County, Texas Trial Court No. 12M1779-CCL

Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley MEMORANDUM OPINION David Matthew Hefley filed a notice of appeal November 9, 2012, appealing the trial court’s refusal to appoint counsel unaffiliated with the Bowie County Public Defender’s Office.

After a thorough review of the clerk’s record, we found no order of any kind.

This Court has jurisdiction over criminal appeals only when expressly granted by law.

TEX. CONST. art. V, § 6; Everett v. State, 91 S.W.3d 386, 386 (Tex. App.—Waco 2002, no pet.).

A timely notice of appeal from a conviction or an appealable order is necessary to invoke this Court’s jurisdiction. Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).

There being no conviction or appealable order in the record, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
