COURT OF APPEALS
                         SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS
                              FORT WORTH

                              NO. 2-08-425-CR

EX PARTE

ANTHONY SCOTT
                                   ------------

     FROM CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 4 OF TARRANT COUNTY

                                   ------------

             MEMORANDUM OPINION 1 AND JUDGMENT

                                   ------------

     On the court’s own motion, we reconsider Appellant’s motion to dismiss

his appeal. Because Appellant has voluntarily waived extradition and has now

been extradited to New Jersey, making his appeal moot,2 the court is of the

opinion that his motion should be granted.

denying Appellant’s motion to dismiss, grant Appellant’s motion to dismiss, and

dismiss this appeal as moot.3
