                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
               Before Justices Myers, Partida-Kipness, and Reichek
                            Opinion by Justice Reichek
      James Jackson filed a March 13, 2020 pro se motion asking the Court to

dismiss his appeals after his appointed counsel filed an Anders brief and motion to

withdraw as counsel in each appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

      Construing these documents together, we conclude that rule of appellate

procedure 42.2(a)’s requirements have been met. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). We

dismiss the appeals. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(f). Counsel’s motions to withdraw are

denied as moot. See Montgomery v. State, No. 03–13-00454-CR, 2013 WL 6665050,
at *1 (Tex. App.—Austin Dec. 11, 2013, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for
