 DISTRICT COURT OF HARRIS COUNTY;



NO. 899462; HONORABLE JOAN CAMPBELL, JUDGE



_______________________________



Before JOHNSON and REAVIS, JJ., and BOYD, SJ.
(footnote: 1)
	Upon his plea of guilty, appellant Darrick Wayne Carter was convicted of the felony offense of evading arrest.  His punishment, in accordance with a plea bargain, was assessed at three years confinement in the Institutional Division of the Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant gave timely notice of appeal from the conviction.

On December 6, 2002, we received appellant’s motion to withdraw his notice of appeal and dismiss the appeal.  His attorney joined in the motion.  Because appellant’s motion meets all the requirements of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a), and because this court has not delivered its decision prior to receiving appellant’s motion, the motion must be, and is hereby, granted.

Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motions for rehearing will be entertained and our mandate will issue forthwith.



John T. Boyd

Senior Justice
