                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The trial court sentenced Robert Jason Logan on February 10, 2012. Logan

filed a notice of appeal on September 27, 2018, more than thirty days after

sentencing. We notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not apparent from the

notice of appeal and further notified them that the appeal would be dismissed for

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

the appeal. Logan filed a response in which he argues that he timely filed a notice of

appeal from the trial court’s September 10, 2018, order denying Logan’s motion to

                                          1
enter a judgment nunc pro tunc. An order denying Logan’s motion for judgment

nunc pro tunc is not independently appealable. See Everett v. State, 82 S.W.3d 735,

735 (Tex. App.—Waco 2002, pet. dism’d). 1 We dismiss the appeal for lack of

jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.

Before McKeithen, C.J., Horton and Johnson, JJ.

      1
        A nunc pro tunc judgment is appealable. Blanton v. State, 369 S.W.3d 894,
904 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012). In this case, however, the trial court denied Logan’s
request and did not sign a judgment nunc pro tunc.
