MEMORANDUM
OPINION

          Appellant,
Robert Walker, has filed a motion for DNA testing and request for appointed
counsel which purports to be a “notice of appeal.”  
          We
dismiss.
          Pursuant
to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 64, a motion for DNA testing and
request for appointment of counsel must be filed in the convicting court.  See
Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art.
64.01 (a), (c) (West Supp. 2010).  Because there is not a final appealable order
before this Court, we lack jurisdiction and must dismiss.  
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal
for lack of jurisdiction.  Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).  We dismiss all pending motions as moot.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices
Bland and Huddle.
