  •                                 Fourth Court of Appeals
    San Antonio, Texas
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    No. 04-18-00419-CR
    Wilbert P. STEWART,
    Appellant
    v.
    The STATE of Texas,
    Appellee
    From the 226th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
    Trial Court No. 1993CR0145
    Honorable Sid L. Harle, Judge Presiding
    PER CURIAM
    Sitting:          Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice
    Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
    Irene Rios, Justice
    Delivered and Filed: August 22, 2018
    DISMISSED
    On June 18, 2018, appellant filed a notice of appeal, stating he intended to appeal the trial
    court’s order denying his motion for judgment nunc pro tunc. The clerk’s record in this appeal has
    been filed, and it shows appellant was convicted in 1993 based on his plea of guilty and pursuant
    to a plea bargain. The clerk’s record also shows appellant sought or is seeking habeas relief under
    article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure.
    On July 3, 2018, we issued an order noting that this court lacks jurisdiction over the denial
    of a motion for judgment nunc pro tunc and over post-conviction felony proceedings under article
    04-18-00419-CR
    11.07. See Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 
    802 S.W.2d 241
    , 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (orig.
    proceeding); Castor v. State, 
    205 S.W.3d 666
    , 667 (Tex. App.—Waco 2006, no pet.). We also
    noted that in a plea bargain case, a defendant has a limited right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P.
    25.2(a)(2). Our July 3, 2018 order gave appellant notice that this appeal would be dismissed unless
    he, by August 1, 2018, filed a response showing this court has jurisdiction over his appeal and that
    he has the right of appeal.
    No response to this court’s July 3, 2018 order has been filed. However, on July 20, 2018,
    appellant, acting pro se, has filed a document titled, “Summons.” The document asserts appellant
    has the right to appeal and requests that this court notify him “of all proceeding[s] done so far and
    anything [else] pertaining to [his] appeal.” When, as here, an appellant has appointed counsel, the
    appellant is not entitled to hybrid representation and any document filed pro se presents nothing
    for our review. See Patrick v. State, 
    906 S.W.2d 481
    , 498 (Tex. Crim. App. 1995); see also TEX.
    R. APP. P. 48.4 (“In criminal cases, the attorney representing the defendant on appeal shall, within
    five days after the opinion is handed down, send his client a copy of the opinion and judgment,
    along with notification of the defendant’s right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review
    under Rule 68.”). Based on the foregoing, this appeal is dismissed.
