NUMBER 13-20-00545-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG ASHLEY TAMEZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. On appeal from the 319th District Court of Nueces County, Texas. MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Tijerina Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Contreras Appellant Ashley Tamez filed a pro se notice of appeal from an order imposing sanctions and continuing or modifying her terms of probation. Represented by counsel, she has now filed a motion to dismiss her appeal on grounds that there is “no basis to appeal [because] the appeal was for [an] order that was not final and appealable.” She requests that we dismiss her appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P .42.2(a) (allowing appellate courts to dismiss criminal appeals upon the appellant’s motion before the appellate court’s decision when the attorney and appellant both sign a written motion to dismiss). Her motion to dismiss is not opposed by the State of Texas. We have not issued an opinion in this case and the motion to withdraw meets the requirements of the appellate rules insofar as it is signed by both appellant and her counsel. See id. Accordingly, without passing on the merits of the case, we grant appellant’s motion to dismiss and we dismiss the appeal. Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith. DORI CONTRERAS Chief Justice Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2 (b). Delivered and filed on the 11th day of March, 2021. 2
