EX PARTE RODNEY GRAY
 
 

 
On Appeal from the 278th District
Court
 Grimes County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 29,711
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N
Appellant is charged with the offense of murder.  The trial court set pre-trial bond at  $200,000. 
Appellant filed a pre-trial application for writ of habeas corpus
seeking a bond reduction.  This Court has
been advised that appellant has been found guilty in a jury trial and has been
sentenced to six years= imprisonment.  The judgment
of guilt renders the issue of pretrial bond moot.  See Ex parte Morgan, 335 S.W.2d 766,
766 (Tex. Crim. App. 1960); Ex parte Bennet, 818 S.W.2d 199, 200 (Tex.
App.CHouston [14th Dist.] 1991, no pet.)
(stating that Awhere the premise of a habeas corpus
application is destroyed by subsequent developments, the legal issues raised
thereunder are rendered moot.@).  
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as moot.
