On Appeal from the County Court Hale County, Texas Trial Court No. 2012C-427, Honorable Bill Coleman, Presiding
May 14, 2013
ORDER OF ABATEMENT Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.
Appellant Gerald Barrow filed a notice of appeal challenging his conviction and
sentence for family violence assault causing bodily injury. He also filed in the trial court
a motion for new trial, and by order signed April 17, 2013, the trial court granted
appellant’s motion for new trial. In a letter to the parties, we questioned our continuing
appellate jurisdiction in the case. Appellant responded with a motion requesting we
abate the appeal until after the deadline for the State to file a notice of appeal from the trial court’s order or the disposition of the State’s appeal. On May 3, 2013, the State
filed a notice of appeal. See State v. Barrow, No. 07-13-0147-CR.
We therefore abate this appeal, case number 07-13-0046-CR, until reinstated by
order of this Court. See Mathews v. State, No. 05-11-00490-CR, No. 05-11-00491-CR,
No. 05-11-00492-CR, No. 05-11-00493-CR, 2013 Tex. App. Lexis 3089 (Tex.App.--
Dallas Mar. 21, 2013, n.p.h.) (mem. op., not designated for publication) (abating

It is so ordered.
