Honorable John Specia, Jr., Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Catherine Stone, Justice

Sarah B. Duncan, Justice

Karen Angelini, Justice

Delivered and Filed: November 2, 2005

DISMISSED

After the appellants filed their notice of appeal, the trial court granted appellants motion for new trial. Because the appellants appeal has become moot, the appellants filed a motion to dismiss this appeal. See Murphy v. Hunt, 455 U.S. 478, 481 (1982) (stating a case becomes moot when the issues presented are no longer live or the parties lack a legally cognizable interest in the outcome. ). Appellants motion is granted, and the appeal is dismissed. Costs of appeal are taxed against the appellants. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(d).
