In The

Fourteenth Court of Appeals

NO. 14-21-00579-CR

JUSTIN GERALD FREDRICHSEN, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 240th District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 13-DCR-063375

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant was convicted of deadly conduct. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.05(b). Subsequently, the trial court granted appellant’s motion for new trial.

Generally, we only have jurisdiction to consider an appeal by a criminal defendant when there has been a final judgment of conviction. See Workman v. State, 343 S.W.2d 446, 447 (Tex. Crim. App. 1961); McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex. App. – Fort Worth 1996, no pet.). Because appellant has been granted a new trial, there is no final conviction to appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
