MEMORANDUM OPINION
J.D.V. filed notice of appeal on February 11, 2005, from an order transferring jurisdiction to criminal court. Upon receiving the notice of appeal, we notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not apparent from the notice of appeal, and warned that appeal would be dismissed unless our jurisdiction was established. The appellant did not file a response. See TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. § 54.02 (Vernon 2002). We conclude the notice of appeal did not invoke our jurisdiction and that jurisdiction is vested in the district court of criminal jurisdiction. See TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. § 56.01 (Vernon 2002). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
