JACK GEORGE FELTMAN, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

---

On Appeal from the Sixth Judicial District Court Lamar County, Texas Trial Court No. 21395

---

Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Jack George Feltman, filed a notice of appeal June 15, 2007, from the trial court's denial of his motion for reimbursement entered May 21, 2007.

The trial court's denial of this motion does not constitute a final, appealable order. Unless otherwise statutorily authorized, an appeal may be made only from a final judgment. See Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.012 (Vernon 1997), § 51.014 (Vernon Supp. 2006).

Further, even if we were to deem Feltman's notice of appeal an appeal from the trial court's order to withdraw funds from inmate account, signed November 9, 2006, according to Rule 26.1 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, Feltman had thirty days after the day that order was signed to file a notice of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1.

Under either scenario, we have no jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.

Josh R. Morriss, III

Chief Justice
