IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

TYLER, TEXAS

MICHAEL EARL MARSHALL,      §          APPEAL FROM THE 178TH

APPELLANT

V.        §          JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF

THE STATE OF TEXAS,

APPELLEE   §          HARRIS COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

            This appeal is being dismissed for want of jurisdiction.  Appellant pleaded guilty to burglary of a habitation, and sentence was imposed on February 27, 2007.  Appellant filed a notice of appeal in this court on April 16, 2007.

            The information received in this appeal shows that Appellant attempts to appeal a final judgment entered by the 178th District Court of Harris County, Texas. However, only the First and Fourteenth District Courts of Appeals have jurisdiction over Harris County.  See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.201(b), (o) (Vernon Supp. 2006).  On May 8, 2007, this court notified Appellant that the appeal would be dismissed unless information was furnished on or before May 18, 2007 to show the jurisdiction of this court.  The deadline has now passed, and Appellant has not shown the jurisdiction of this court or otherwise responded to this court’s notice.  According, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Opinion delivered May 23, 2007.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
