                    IN THE MATTER OF G.M., Appellant

                   On Appeal from the 313th District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                     Trial Court Cause No. 2021-01128J

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Appellant, G.M., a juvenile, has filed an unopposed motion to voluntarily

dismiss his appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.3(a)(2), 42.1(a)(1). Appellant’s motion,

signed by appellant and his attorney, includes a statement that appellant has been

advised by his attorney regarding his right to appeal and that he understands the

consequences of dismissing his appeal. We conclude that appellant’s motion is
sufficient to show that he has knowingly waived his right to appeal. See TEX. FAM.

CODE § 51.09.

      Accordingly, we grant the motion and dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.1(a)(1). We dismiss all other pending motions as moot.

                                 PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams and Justices Countiss and Rivas-Molloy.
