MEMORANDUM OPINION
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 

Â Â Â Â Â Â A jury convicted Appellant Johnny Richard Wells of resisting arrest.  See Tex. Pen. Code
Ann. Â§ 38.03 (Vernon 1994).  The jury assessed Wellsâs punishment at six monthsâ confinement
and a $1,500 fine.  Wells has filed a motion to dismiss his appeal.  In relevant portion, Rule 42.2
of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure states:
(a) At any time before the appellate courtâs decision, the appellate court may dismiss the
appeal if the appellant withdraws his or her notice of appeal.  The appellant and his or
her attorney must sign the written withdrawal and file it in duplicate with the appellate
clerk, who must immediately send the duplicate copy to the trial court clerk.

Tex. R. App. P. 42.2(a).
Â Â Â Â Â Â We have not issued a decision in this appeal.  The motion is signed by both Wells and his
attorney.  Thus, the motion meets the requirements of the rules and is granted.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Wellsâs appeal is dismissed.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â PER CURIAM

Appeal
dismissed; motion to extend time denied
Opinion
delivered and filed June 29, 2011
[CV06]



Â 




[1] Initially, the motion to extend was
filed in case number 10-10-00273-CV, as that case number was listed in the
motionÂs style and that case involved most of the same parties.Â  We have
determined that the motion should have been filed as a new appeal.
Â 


[2] We assume without deciding that this
case is properly characterized as a restricted appeal.
Â 


[3] The District Clerk has provided us with
a file-marked copy of the judgments, as have Appellees with their response to
AppellantsÂ motion to extend time.
