                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On July 15, 2013, we notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not

apparent from the notice of appeal and the appeal would be dismissed 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 denial of a motion to recuse. The

order is not appealable prior to conviction. See Green v. State, 374 S.W.3d 434,

                                        1
445-46 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012); Apolinar v. State, 820 S.W.2d 792, 794 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1991). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
