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

      Appellant, Celia Marie Salazar, Individually, and as next friend of her minor

daughter, E.N.S., filed an appeal from a judgment entered by the County Court at Law

No. 1 of Nueces County, Texas, in cause number 2017CCV-60263-1. Appellant has
filed a motion to dismiss the appeal on grounds the appeal is moot. Appellee has not

filed a response to the motion to dismiss.

       The trial court signed a judgment in favor of appellee and against appellant on

October 17, 2018. The trial court subsequently granted appellant’s timely motion for new

trial on January 30, 2019, while it still had plenary jurisdiction over the case. See TEX.

R. CIV. P. 329b (c), (e).

       The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s motion to

dismiss the appeal, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.1(a).    Appellant’s motion to dismiss is granted, and the appeal is hereby

DISMISSED as moot.          Costs will be taxed against appellant.    See TEX. R. APP. P.

42.1(d) ("Absent agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant.").

Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will be

entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith.



                                                                GINA M. BENAVIDES,
                                                                Justice
