                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On September 1, 2015, the Court notified the parties that our jurisdiction

was not apparent from the notice of appeal and the Court would dismiss the appeal

for want of jurisdiction unless we received a response showing grounds for

continuing the appeal. No response has been filed.

      The notice of appeal seeks to appeal the regional presiding judge’s denial of

a motion to recuse. The order is not appealable prior to conviction. See Green v.

State, 374 S.W.3d 434, 445-46 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012); Apolinar v. State, 820

                                        1
S.W.2d 792, 794 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); Means v. State, 825 S.W.2d 260, 260-61

(Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1992, no pet.). Accordingly, we dismiss the

appeal for want of jurisdiction.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
