Trial Court Cause No. 1097436

Appellant was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a
child and filed this appeal.  Subsequently, the trial court granted appellant’s
motion for new trial.
Generally, we only have jurisdiction to consider an appeal by
a criminal defendant when there has been a final judgment of conviction.  See
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. – Fort Worth 1996, no pet.). 
Because appellant has been granted a new trial, there is no final conviction to
appeal.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
