of El Paso County, Texas

(TC# 20040D04883)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Pending before the Court is a motion to dismiss filed by the State pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.2(a). By its motion, the State has withdrawn its notice of appeal prior to the appellate court s decision and the written withdrawal is signed by the State s attorney on appeal. See State v. Miles, 994 S.W.2d 410 (Tex.App.--Waco 1999, no pet.). Further, the State filed a duplicate copy of its motion with this Court and that copy has been hand-delivered to the trial court clerk. Because the State has established compliance with the requirements of Rule 42.2(a), we grant the motion and dismiss the appeal.
