CODY JOHN HICKS,                                                             Appellant,

                                            v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                 Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

          On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 2
                   of Victoria County, Texas.

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

   Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Longoria
                  Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      On March 16, 2015, the appeal was abated because appellant’s counsel had not

filed a brief. Counsel for appellant has filed a motion to withdraw and dismiss the appeal.

In a signed affidavit attached to the motion, appellant states that he wants the Court to

grant the motion to dismiss the appeal and allow the conviction to become final. This

appeal is hereby REINSTATED.
       We find the motion and attachment together meet the requirement of Texas Rule

of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and his 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.



                                                        PER CURIAM



Do not publish.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

Delivered and filed the
14th day of May, 2015.
