  In appeals from cases involving the termination of parental rights, the rules of appellate procedure require
the use of an alias to refer to a minor, Aand if necessary to protect the minor’s identity, to the minor’s parent
or other family member.” Tex. R. App. P. 9.8.
      The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s motion to

dismiss the appeal, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.1(a). Appellant’s motion to dismiss the appeal is granted, and the appeal is hereby

DISMISSED.     Costs will be taxed against appellant.     See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(d)

("Absent agreement of the parties, the court will tax costs against the appellant.").

Having dismissed the appeal at appellant’s request, no motion for rehearing will be

entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith.
