    Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Benavides and Perkes
                  Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

       Appellant, Jacob Thomas Layton, perfected an appeal from his judgment of

conviction for the offense of burglary of a habitation committing a theft. Appellant, acting

by and through his attorney, has now filed a motion to dismiss his appeal because he no

longer desires to prosecute it. 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.
