                                   Shelton Ray DAVISON,
                                          Appellant

                                               v.

                                    The STATE of Texas,
                                          Appellee

           From the Criminal District Court, Magistrate Court, Bexar County, Texas
                               Trial Court No. 2021CR5908
                       Honorable Andrew Carruthers, Judge Presiding

                                        ORDER

        Appellant Shelton Davison filed a notice of appeal challenging the trial court’s
determination that he is incompetent to stand trial. However, the Texas Code of Criminal
Procedure expressly states that “[n]either the state nor the defendant is entitled to make an
interlocutory appeal relating to a determination or ruling” regarding the defendant’s competency
to stand trial. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 46B.011. Thus, it appears that we lack
jurisdiction to entertain this appeal. We, therefore, ORDER appellant to show cause on or before
June 15, 2022, why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All appellate
deadlines are suspended pending further order from this court.

       It is so ORDERED on May 16, 2022.

                                                                  PER CURIAM

       ATTESTED TO:__________________________
