                      THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


                  On Appeal from the 263rd District Court1
                           Harris County, Texas
                  Trial Court Case No. 1071617 & 1078980


                         MEMORANDUM OPINION




1
     Counsel for Appellant: Pro Se
     Counsel for Appellee: Alan Curry, District Attorney
     Trial court Judge: Hon. Jim Wallace
      Appellant, Keith Anthony Marine, proceeding pro se, filed a notice of appeal

in these two related cases, seeking to challenge a failure of the trial judge to rule on

post-conviction discovery motions.

      Following a joint trial on two separate indictments in 2007, a jury found

appellant, Keith Anthony Marine, guilty of two aggravated sexual assaults of a

minor. Because the trial court found appellant had previously been convicted of a

sexual assault crime in another state, the court assessed a mandatory life sentence

in each case, with the sentences to run concurrently. We affirmed the judgments in

an unpublished opinion. See Marine v. State, Not Reported in S.W.3d, 2008 WL

1904051 (Tex.App.-Hous. (1 Dist.)).

      To the extent Marine is attempting to appeal from the judgments of

conviction in each of these cases, the appeal has already been adjudicated and the

judgments are final. Further, his notice of appeal was untimely. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 26.2. The court of criminal appeals has expressly held that without a timely

filed notice of appeal or motion for extension of time we cannot exercise

jurisdiction over an appeal. See Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1996); see also Slaton, 981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998).

Therefore, to the extent Trevino attempts to appeal from the judgments against

him, we have no jurisdiction over these appeals.




                                           2
       Further, to the extent Marine attempts to appeal from any orders of the trial

court related to the motions he mailed to the trial court clerk, these motions relate

to final felony convictions, and only the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has

jurisdiction in final post-conviction felony proceedings. See TEX. CODE CRIM.

PROC. ANN. art. 11.07 (West Supp. 2012); Bd. of Pardons & Paroles ex rel. Keene

v. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Dist., 910 S.W.2d 481, 483 (Tex. Crim. App.

1995); In re Briscoe, 230 S.W.3d 196, 196 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2006,

orig. proceeding); In re McAfee, 53 S.W.3d 715, 717 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st

Dist.] 2001, orig. proceeding).

       On May 2, 2013, appellant filed a motion to quash the indictments.

Although the record contains no order on the motion, appellant filed a notice of

appeal.2




2
        In his Notice of Appeal, appellant is complaining of a failure to rule on the
motion. The trial court must execute a certification of appellant’s right of appeal each
time the trial court enters an appealable order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2. No order of the
trial court related to his notice of appeal or to the motion mailed and filed on May 2, 2013
appears in the record. And, unless a written, signed order of the trial court appears in the
record, we have no jurisdiction over the appeal. See, e.g., Broussard v. State, 01-10-
00458-CR, 2010 WL 4056861, *2 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] Oct. 14, 2010, no
pet.) (not designated for publication). We will not, however, abate this case for a
determination of whether any orders of the trial court exist, because, as discussed below,
Trevino’s felony convictions are final and we have no jurisdiction over final post-
conviction felony proceedings. See In re McAfee, 53 S.W.3d 715, 717 (Tex. App.—
Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, orig. proceeding).

                                             3
      We dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. CODE. CRIM.

PROC. ANN. art. 11.07, § 3; Olivo, 918 S.W.2d at 522. We dismiss any pending

motions as moot.

Panel consists of Justices Jennings, Sharp, and Brown.
