MEMORANDUM OPINION1
----------
Appellant Jonathan David Tsuchiya attempts to appeal a trial court order
finding him incompetent to stand trial and committing him to a mental-health
facility. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 46B.005 (West 2006), art. 46B.073
(West Supp. 2014). On August 27, 2014, we notified Tsuchiya of our concern
that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal because the trial court’s order is not

appealable. See id. art. 46B.011 (West 2006) (“Neither the state nor the
defendant is entitled to make an interlocutory appeal relating to a determination
or ruling under Article 46B.005.”). We informed him that the appeal would be
dismissed unless he or any party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response
showing grounds to continue the appeal. We received a pro se response from
Tsuchiya, but it does not show grounds for continuing the appeal. Accordingly,
we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
