COURT OF APPEALS EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS EL PASO, TEXAS ———————————— No. 08-25-00176-CR ———————————— Cameron Pouncy, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee

On Appeal from the County Court Andrews County, Texas Trial Court No. 24-0055

M E MO RA N D UM O PI NI O N Cameron Pouncy, representing himself, has filed a notice of appeal in which he attempts to appeal from an order denying his motion to dismiss the charges against him on the grounds of “lack of corpus delicti.” 1 When the district clerk filed the clerk’s record, she notified us that there

State, 91 S.W.3d 801, 805 (Tex. Crim. App. 2002). Generally, a criminal defendant may appeal only a final judgment of conviction. See e.g., Abbot v. State, 271 S.W.3d 694 n.8 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008) (noting the “long- established rule that a defendant’s general right to appeal under Article 44.02” is limited to appeals from a final judgment). We do not have jurisdiction to review interlocutory orders unless that jurisdiction has been expressly granted by statute. Id. at 696–97 (“The standard for determining jurisdiction is not whether the appeal is precluded by law, but whether the appeal is authorized by law.”).

Because there was no judgment of conviction, we notified Pouncy that his appeal would be dismissed unless he filed a response showing grounds to continue. Pouncy did not respond to our request. Because there is no judgment of conviction or other appealable order in the clerk’s record, we dismiss the appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
