CHARLES LEE GRABLE,
Appellant
 
V.
 
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
 

 
On Appeal from the
232nd District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No.
764,539
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N
This is
an attempted appeal from the denial of appellant=s AMotion for Order Nunc Pro Tunc
Judgment Amendment.@    




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.CFort 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.CDallas 1998, no pet.);  McKown, 915 S.W.2d at 161.  
The
denial of a motion for a nunc pro tunc judgment is not an appealable order.  Everett
v. State, 82 S.W.3d 735, 735 (Tex. App.BWaco 2002, pet dism=d); Bridwell v. State, 2007 WL
3391469 at *1 (Tex. App-Beaumont Nov. 14, 2007, no pet).  Because this appeal
does not fall within the exceptions 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.
