Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed February 9, 2016. In The Fourteenth Court of Appeals NO. 14-15-00981-CR NO. 14-15-00982-CR EX PARTE TERRY BROWN On Appeal from the 338th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. 1487550 and 1487551 MEMORANDUM OPINION These appeals are from the denial of habeas corpus relief. While on parole for manufacture and delivery of a controlled substance, appellant was charged with possession of cocaine (approximately 4 grams) in trial court cause number 1454060. Pre-trial bond was set at $100,000. Appellant posted bond and was released. Subsequently, appellant was arrested for possession with intent to deliver cocaine (approximately 28 grams) in trial court cause number 1481811. The trial court revoked appellant’s original bond and set a new bond in each cause at $200,000. Appellant filed an application for writ of habeas corpus requesting a reduction in bail to a reasonable amount, which appellant stated in his application would be a combined bond of $200,000. The trial court conducted a hearing on appellant’s application. After reviewing the evidence and hearing the arguments of counsel, the trial court denied appellant’s request. Appellant has informed this court that both appeals are moot since, on January 27, 2016, trial court cause number 1481811 was dismissed by the State and bond was posted in trial court cause number 1454060. Accordingly, we order both appeals dismissed. PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Jamison, Donovan, and Brown. Do Not Publish — Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b). 2
