MEMORANDUM OPINION

Jorge Arturo Mar Jr. appealed from orders denying his applications for a writ

of habeas corpus, in which he sought reduction of pretrial bond. The District Clerk

subsequently notified this Court that appellant has been tried by jury and convicted

in both cases. Issues regarding pretrial bail are moot when the accused is no longer

subject to pretrial confinement. See Martinez v. State, 826 S.W.2d 620, 620 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1992); Bennet v. State, 818 S.W.2d 199, 200 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th

Dist.] 1991, no pet.). Accordingly, we dismiss these appeals as moot.
