FROM THE 30th
District Court OF Wichita COUNTY

MEMORANDUM
OPINION[1]
----------
 
          Appellant
Phillip Jackson attempts to appeal from the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals’s
recent denial of his application for writ of habeas corpus.  On June 14, 2011,
we notified Jackson of our concern that we lacked jurisdiction over this appeal
because this court has no jurisdiction to review decisions of the Texas Court
of Criminal Appeals,[2] and we informed him that
this appeal was subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction unless he or any
party desiring to continue this appeal filed a response with this court by June
24, 2011, showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  See Tex. R. App.
P. 44.3.  On June 27, 2011, Jackson filed a response, but it does not show
grounds for continuing the appeal.  Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for
want of jurisdiction.  See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
