                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The trial court sentenced Landon Collins Talkington on May 19, 2015. On

August 10, 2015, Talkington filed a notice of appeal from an order denying a

“Motion to Waiver Payment of Fines, Court Cost, and Court-Appointed Attorney

Fees.” See generally Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 43.091 (West Supp. 2014).

An appeal in a criminal case must be specifically authorized by statute, and a court

of appeals lacks jurisdiction to review interlocutory and post-judgment orders

unless such jurisdiction has been expressly granted by law. Apolinar v. State, 820

                                         1
S.W.2d 792, 794 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (no interlocutory appeal from an order

denying a special plea); see also Haile v. State, 451 S.W.3d 856, 857-58 (Tex.

App.—Austin 2014, no pet.) (no appeal from a trial court’s post-judgment ruling

denying a motion to dismiss court costs and fines). Talkington has failed to show

any authority granting an intermediate appellate court jurisdiction to consider an

appeal from the denial of his post-conviction motion. Accordingly, we dismiss the

appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
