                On Appeal from the 252nd District Court

                       Trial Cause No. 12-14299

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Leejay Emanuel Chargois has filed a motion to dismiss his appeal.

Chargois’s motion shows that the trial court granted Chargois’s motion for new

trial while the court retained plenary power over the case. See Tex. R. App. P.

21.8(a). No reply has been filed. The Court lacks jurisdiction over the appeal,

because the trial court granted a new trial. See Tex. R. App. P. 21.9(b) (“Granting a

new trial restores the case to its position before the former trial, including, at any

                                          1
party’s option, arraignment or pretrial proceedings initiated by that party.”).

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
