NUMBER 13-23-00504-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG JASON CURTIS LAMBERT, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. ON APPEAL FROM THE 24TH DISTRICT COURT OF JACKSON COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Tijerina and Justices Cron and Fonseca Memorandum Opinion by Justice Cron This cause is before the Court on appellant’s motion to dismiss this appeal. On February 2, 2024, we ordered the appeal abated pending the outcome of cause number 13-24-00039-CR. In that appeal, on May 21, 2026, the Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed our judgment, and, on July 23, 2026, we issued our mandate in the case. Upon review of the documents before the Court, the motion to dismiss was digitally signed by both appellant and counsel, and appellant signed an attached unsworn declaration under penalty of perjury stating that his “request to dismiss [his] appeal . . . is true and correct.” We find the motion and attachment meet the requirement of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and his counsel must sign a written motion to voluntarily dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). Accordingly, the appeal is hereby reinstated, and the motion to dismiss is granted. Without passing on the merits of the case, the appeal is hereby dismissed. Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained. JENNY CRON Justice Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
