MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant filed a notice of appeal from a conviction in justice court in Anderson County, Texas. On April 16, 2008, this court notified Appellant by letter, pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 37.1, that the notice of appeal does not show the jurisdiction of this court because a judgment from a justice court cannot be appealed directly to a court of appeals. See TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 45.042(a), (b) (Vernon 2006). Appellant was further informed that the appeal would be dismissed unless, on or before April 28, 2008, the information received in the appeal was amended to show the jurisdiction of this court. Appellant's deadline for amending the information in this appeal has passed, and he has neither shown the jurisdiction of this court or otherwise responded to this court's April 16, 2008 notice. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction .
