                            COURT OF APPEALS

                  THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

LUIS ROJAS SOLIZ,                                                          Appellant,

                                           v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                 Appellee.
____________________________________________________________

             On appeal from the 105th District Court
                   of Kleberg County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
            Before Justices Rodriguez, Longoria, and Hinojosa
                Memorandum Opinion by Justice Longoria

      Counsel for appellant filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. The motion states that

appellant requests the appeal be dismissed through a pleading filed with the trial court

and contained in a supplemental clerk’s record. A supplemental clerk’s record includes

appellant’s signed “Intention of Defendant Regarding Appeal” stating that he does not

intend to pursue the appeal of his case and would like it dismissed.
      We find the motion and document together meet the requirement of Texas Rule of

Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and his attorney must sign a written motion to

dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). Without passing on the merits of the

case, we grant the motion to dismiss pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure

42.2(a) and dismiss the appeal. Having dismissed the appeal at appellant's request, no

motion for rehearing will be entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith.

                                                       NORA L. LONGORIA
                                                       Justice

Do not publish.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
25th day of January, 2018.
