Head Matter:
Ex Parte D. L. McLean.
No. 21071.
Delivered May 15, 1940.
The opinion states the case.
Crawford C. Martin, of Hillsboro, for appellant.
Lloyd W. Davidson, State’s Attorney, of Austin, for the State.

Opinion:
HAWKINS, Presiding Judge.
Relator obtained fiom Hon. J. D. Stephenson, District Judge of Hill County, a writ of habeas corpus seeking bail, or reduction thereof, upon a charge by indictment of the offense of burglary. Upon a hearing relator's bond was fixed at $2,500.00, from which order he gave notice of appeal to this court.
It is now made known to us that relator's bond was reduced to $1,000.00, which he has given, and was released from custody, hence the question presented on appeal has become moot.
The appeal will, therefore, be dismissed, and it is so ordered.
