MEMORANDUM OPINION

No. 04-18-00274-CR

Jose Flores HERNANDEZ,

Appellant

v.

The STATE of Texas,

Appellee

From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 1980CR1362W Honorable Jefferson Moore, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice

Delivered and Filed: July 25, 2018 DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION Appellant has filed a notice of appeal seeking to appeal the trial court’s order denying his motion for a judgment nunc pro tunc. Because we do not have jurisdiction to consider an appeal of an order denying a motion for a judgment nunc pro tunc, we ordered appellant to show cause in writing why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Our order noted that the denial of a motion for a judgment nunc pro tunc is not an appealable order; instead, the proper remedy to obtain review of the denial of a motion for judgment nunc pro tunc is by petition for writ of mandamus. See Reyes v. State, No. 04-12-00267-CR, 2012 WL 2602965, at *1 (Tex.

App.—San Antonio July 5, 2012, no pet.) (mem. op.); Castor v. State, 205 S.W.3d 666, 667 (Tex. App.—Waco 2006, no pet.). Appellant timely filed a response to our show cause order, but did not provide a basis upon which we may exercise jurisdiction over this appeal. We, therefore, dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
