NUMBER 13-09-00465-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG _____________________________________________________________ WILLIAM GILL, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. ______________________________________________________________ On appeal from the 214th District Court of Nueces County, Texas. _____________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Benavides Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam Appellant, William Gill, filed a notice of appeal challenging his conviction for intoxication manslaughter. By order signed October 9, 2009, the trial court granted appellant's motion for new trial. When the trial court grants a motion for new trial, it restores the case to its position before the former trial. See TEX . R. APP. P. 21.9(b). Because there is no conviction to be appealed, we have no jurisdiction to consider this appeal. See Waller v. State, 931 S.W.2d 640, 643-44 (Tex. App. Dallas 1996, no pet.). The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file and the trial court's order granting a new trial, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See id. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION. PER CURIAM Do not publish. TEX . R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Delivered and filed the 28th day of January, 2010. 2
