MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellant was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child and filed this appeal. Subsequently, the trial court granted appellant's motion for new trial. Generally, we only have jurisdiction to consider an appeal by a criminal defendant when there has been a final judgment of conviction. See Workman v. State, 170 Tex. Crim. 621, 343 S.W.2d 446, 447 (1961); McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex. App.-Fort Worth 1996, no pet.). Because appellant has been granted a new trial, there is no final conviction to appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
