                            COURT OF APPEALS

                  THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

NOHEMI GABRIELA GONZALEZ,                                                  Appellant,

                                          v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                 Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

             On appeal from the 370th District Court
                   of Hidalgo County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                       MEMORANDUM OPINION
            Before Justices Rodriguez, Longoria, and Hinojosa
                Memorandum Opinion by Justice Longoria

      This appeal was abated by this Court on November 9, 2017, because appellant

failed to file a brief. This cause is now before the court because counsel for appellant

has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. Accordingly, this case is hereby REINSTATED.
      In an affidavit attached to the motion to dismiss appeal, appellant states that she

no longer wishes to pursue her appeal. We find the motion and affidavit together meet

the requirement of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and her

attorney must sign a written motion to dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a).

Without passing on the merits of the case, we GRANT the motion to dismiss pursuant to

Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) and dismiss the appeal. Having dismissed

the appeal at appellant's request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained, and our

mandate will issue forthwith.

                                                             NORA L. LONGORIA
                                                             Justice


Do not publish.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
14th day of December, 2017.
