            No. 02-22-00245-CV
       ___________________________

    IN THE INTEREST OF Y.J., A CHILD

   On Appeal from the 325th District Court
             Tarrant County, Texas
Trial Court Nos. 323-107644-18, 325-719948-22

Before Birdwell, J.; Sudderth, C.J.; and Walker, J.
      Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
                MEMORANDUM OPINION AND JUDGMENT

       Appellant timely filed a notice of appeal from the June 9, 2022 judgment. See

Tex. R. App. P. 26.1(b). The newly assigned trial judge then granted appellant’s timely

filed motion for new trial on August 19, 2022, within the trial court’s plenary

jurisdiction. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 329b(a), (e).

       Because the trial court’s order moots the appeal, we dismiss the appeal for want

of jurisdiction. 1 See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 43.2(f); Wilkins v. Methodist Health Care

Sys., 160 S.W.3d 559, 563 (Tex. 2005). The parties will pay their own costs. See Tex.

R. App. P. 43.4.

                                                      Per Curiam

Delivered: August 25, 2022

       Likewise, appellant’s motion to abate the appeal is denied as moot.
