MEMORANDUM OPINION

On June 5, 2019, we notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not apparent from the notice of appeal and warned that the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction unless we received a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. Appellant filed a response, but he failed to articulate a valid basis for jurisdiction in that response.

2

Appellant has failed to demonstrate that the trial court has signed an order that is appealable at this time. See McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex. App.— Fort Worth 1996, no pet.) (holding that intermediate appellate courts lack jurisdiction to review interlocutory orders unless such jurisdiction is expressly granted by statute). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
