                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION
 
     Before
Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Garza
                               Memorandum
Opinion Per Curiam
 
Appellant,
Jose Ramos, was convicted of assault.  On January 13, 2010, appellant filed a
notice of appeal by and through his attorney.  Counsel for appellant
subsequently informed this Court that appellant did not intend to prosecute his
appeal.  Counsel filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, but the motion was
denied because it did not contain appellant’s signature.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.2 (a).   
 
On
April 29, 2011, this Court abated the appeal because of counsel=s failure to file a brief and ordered the trial court to
determine whether appellant desired to prosecute this appeal.  Following the trial
court hearing, the trial court issued an order that the appeal be dismissed.  
Although
no written motion has been filed in compliance with Rule 42.2(a) of the Texas
Rules of Appellate Procedure, based upon the order issued by the trial court we
conclude that appellant does not want to continue his appeal and that good
cause exists to suspend the operation of Rule 42.2(a) in this case.  See
Tex. R. App. P. 2.   Accordingly,
we dismiss the appeal.
 
PER CURIAM

47.2(b).  
Delivered and filed the
4th day of August, 2011.
