                            COURT OF APPEALS

                  THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

NINA MARIE DUKES,                                                           Appellant,

                                           v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                 Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

             On appeal from the 117th District Court
                   of Nueces County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                      MEMORANDUM OPINION
 Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Hinojosa
             Memorandum Opinion by Justice Longoria

      Appellant, Nina Marie Dukes, attempted to appeal an order modifying conditions

of probation issued by the trial court on October 24, 2019. On January 27, 2020, the Clerk

of this Court notified appellant the order from which the appeal was taken did not appear

to be an appealable order. The letter requested correction of this defect within ten days
or the appeal would be dismissed. To date, no corrective action has been taken by

appellant.

      The courts of appeals do not have jurisdiction to review interlocutory orders in a

criminal appeal absent express statutory authority. Apolinar v. State, 820 S.W.2d 792,

794 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); Bridle v. State, 16 S.W.3d 906, 907 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth

2000, no pet.). Exceptions to the general rule 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. See also Bridle, 16 S.W.3d at 908 n.1.

      The Court, having examined and fully considered the notice of appeal and the

matters before the Court, is of the opinion there is not an appealable order and this Court

lacks jurisdiction over the matters here. Because there is no appealable order, we

DISMISS the appeal for want of jurisdiction. All pending motions, if any, are likewise

DISMISSED.

                                                              NORA L. LONGORIA
                                                              Justice

Do not publish.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
19th day of March, 2020.
