                         MEMORANDUM OPINION
  Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Tijerina
              Memorandum Opinion by Justice Tijerina

      This cause is before the Court on appellant’s waiver of appeal which is now

construed as a motion to dismiss this appeal. The motion was signed by both counsel

and the appellant. We find the motion meets the requirement of Texas Rule of Appellate

Procedure 42.2(a) that appellant and attorney must sign a written motion to dismiss the

appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). Without passing on the merits of the case, the motion
to dismiss is granted.

       Accordingly, the appeal is hereby dismissed. Having dismissed the appeal at

appellant's request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained.

                                                                    JAIME TIJERINA
                                                                    Justice

Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
28th day of July, 2022.
