OPINION[1]
 
                                              ------------
Appellant Quillens Edwin
Stevens, Jr. appeals from the trial court=s November 20, 2006 denial of relief on his application for writ of
habeas corpus seeking a bond reduction pending appeal of his conviction and
sentence under article 44.04(d) of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure.[2]

Article 44.04(d) provides
that a postconviction bond may be increased or decreased Apending determination of any motion for new trial or pending final
determination of the appeal.@[3]  This court affirmed Appellant=s conviction and sentence on August 3, 2006,[4]
and the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals refused Appellant=s petition for review on November 1, 2006 and finally disposed of the
case on December 11, 2006.  There is
therefore no pending appeal on Appellant=s conviction and sentence. 
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as moot.[5]
