                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Wade Byron Morgan filed a notice of appeal from the trial court’s order of

February 27, 2019, which denied Morgan’s motion for entry of a judgment nunc pro

tunc. We questioned our jurisdiction over this appeal. Morgan filed a response but

did not establish our jurisdiction over this appeal. The State filed a response alleging

that this Court lacks jurisdiction. We lack jurisdiction over this appeal because an

order denying a motion for judgment nunc pro tunc is not appealable. See Everett v.
                                           1
State, 82 S.W.3d 735, 735 (Tex. App.—Waco 2002, pet. dism’d); Allen v. State, 20
S.W.3d 164, 165 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2000, no pet. [mand. denied]).

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
