NORMAN TUCKER, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
ON APPEAL FROM THE 319TH DISTRICT COURT
OF NUECES COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Peña, West, and Fonseca
Memorandum Opinion by Justice West
This cause is before the court on appellant’s request to withdraw appeal. Counsel
for appellant signed the motion, and the appellant signed an attached statement (made
under penalty of perjury) indicating that he wishes to withdraw and voluntarily dismiss the
appeal. We find the motion and statement together substantially comply with the
requirements of Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and attorney
must sign a written motion to dismiss an appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). Without
passing on the merits of the case, we grant the motion to dismiss and dismiss the appeal.
Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will
be entertained.
