RICHARD
BARNETT GOOSBY, Appellant
 
V.
 
THE STATE OF
TEXAS, Appellee
 

 
On Appeal from the
182nd District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No.
986,575
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N
This is an attempted appeal from a dismissal of charges,
which the State refiled under a different cause number.  




Generally, an appellate court only has jurisdiction to
consider an appeal by a criminal defendant where there has been a final
judgment of conviction.  Workman v.
State, 170 Tex.Crim. 621, 343 S.W.2d 446, 447 (1961);  McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161
(Tex.App.‑‑Fort Worth 1996, no pet.).  The exceptions include:  (1) certain appeals while on deferred
adjudication community supervision, Kirk v. State, 942 S.W.2d 624, 625
(Tex.Crim.App.1997); (2) appeals from the denial of a motion to reduce bond,
TEX.R.APP. P. 31.1; McKown, 915 S.W.2d at 161;  and (3) certain appeals from the denial of
habeas corpus relief, Wright v. State, 969 S.W.2d 588, 589 (Tex.App.‑‑Dallas
1998, no pet.);  McKown, 915
S.W.2d at 161.  
Because this appeal does not fall in an exception to the
general rule that appeal may be taken only from a final judgment of conviction,
we have no jurisdiction. 
            Accordingly,
the appeal is ordered dismissed.
