DISMISS; Opinion issued May 8, 2013
S In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-13-00507-CR
TERRY CLARK SHELTON, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 291st Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F09-20518-U
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Moseley, Bridges, and Lang-Miers
Opinion by Justice Bridges
Terry Clark Shelton was convicted of aggravated robbery. Punishment, enhanced by two
prior felony convictions, was assessed at fifty years’ imprisonment, and was imposed in open
court on November 5, 2010. On February 20, 2013, appellant filed a motion in the trial court
seeking a free copy of the record for his case. It does not appear the trial court ruled on
appellant’s motion, but appellant filed a notice of appeal on March 29, 2012.
Absent a judgment of conviction or appealable order, the Court has no jurisdiction over
an appeal. See Nikrasch v. State, 698 S.W.2d 443, 450 (Tex. App.––Dallas ). Moreover, an
order denying appellant a copy of the record is not an appealable order. See Wright v. State, 969
S.W.2d 588, 589–90 (Tex. App.––Dallas 1998, no pet.).
We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
