Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and PIRTLE, JJ.

       Appellant Gerald Leslie Coots, by and through his attorney, has filed a motion to

dismiss his appeal because he no longer desires to prosecute it. 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.
