Opinion
IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
No. 10-11-00292-CR No. 10-11-00293-CR No. 10-11-00294-CR
COREY STEWART, Appellant v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
From the 361st District Court Brazos County, Texas Trial Court Nos. 10-02912-CRF-361, 10-02911-CRF-361 And 10-03856-CRF-361
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On August 1, 2011, we received a notice of appeal for four trial court case
numbers all styled “The State of Texas vs Corey Stewart.” Thus, we docketed each trial
court case number as a separate appeal: trial court case number 10-02913-CRF-361 as
appellate case number 10-11-00291-CR; trial court case number 10-02912-CRF-361 as
appellate case number 10-11-00292-CR; trial court case number 10-02911-CRF-361 as appellate case number 10-11-00293-CR; and trial court case number 10-03856-CRF-361
as appellate case number 10-11-00294-CR. See TEX. R. APP. P. 12.2(a), (b), and (c).
On August 11, 2011, we received a copy of an order appointing counsel in trial
court case number 10-02913-CRF-361 (10-11-00291-CR) from that counsel. Counsel
informed us that she was appointed only in trial court case number 10-02913-CRF-361
and that the other three trial court cases were still pending in the trial court. We
contacted the trial court clerk and confirmed that trial court case numbers 10-02912-
CRF-361, 10-02911-CRF-361, and 10-03856-CRF-361 are still pending in the trial court
and no judgment has been rendered in any of these cases.
Because no judgment has been rendered in trial court case numbers 10-02912-
CRF-361, 10-02911-CRF-361, and 10-03856-CRF-361 and these cases are still pending in
the trial court, the notice of appeal for each of these cases is not effective, and we have
no jurisdiction of the corresponding appeals 10-11-00292-CR, 10-11-00293-CR, and 10-
11-00294-CR. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a); 27.1(b) (“…a notice of appeal is not effective if
filed before the trial court makes a finding of guilt or receives a jury verdict.”).
Accordingly, these appeals are dismissed.
