Ex Parte: Kirk Wayne McBride--Appeal from 22nd District Court of Comal County

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-95-00541-CR
Ex parte: Kirk Wayne McBride, Appellant
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF COMAL COUNTY, 22ND JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NOS. CR95-129, CR95-130, CR95-131 & CR95-132
HONORABLE CHARLES R. RAMSAY, JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM

 

Appellant filed petitions for writs of habeas corpus seeking a reduction of bail pending trial in the above-referenced causes. The writs issued and, after a hearing, relief was denied. This appeal followed. Tex. R. App. P. 44.

This Court has received notice that appellant has been tried, convicted, and sentenced to imprisonment for ninety-nine years in cause number CR95-129. A defendant cannot be released on bail pending appeal where the punishment exceeds imprisonment for fifteen years. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 44.04(b) (West Supp. 1995). Under the circumstances, the question of appellant's entitlement to a reduction of bail is moot.

For the reason stated, the appeal is dismissed.
