ZHUORAN CAO,

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,
                                                           Appellee


                      From the County Court at Law No. 1
                             Brazos County, Texas
                            Trial Court No. 4721-A


                          MEMORANDUM OPINION


      Zhuoran Cao appeals his conviction for speeding, 25 or more over the limit. By

letter dated December 18, 2013, the Clerk of this Court notified Cao that the appeal was

subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction because the judgment underlying this

appeal is a County Court at Law judgment in a trial de novo appeal from an inferior

court and the County Court at Law judgment does not impose a fine or affirm a fine in

excess of $100. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 4.03. By the same letter, the Clerk

also warned Cao that the Court would dismiss the appeal unless, within 7 days from
the date of the letter, a response was filed explaining why the Court has jurisdiction of

this appeal. Cao filed a response, but it does not show that the Court has jurisdiction of

this appeal.

        This appeal is dismissed.1 See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.3.
