Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-22-00337-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF L.T., A CHILD

From the County Court at Law Ellis County, Texas Trial Court No. 105524CCL

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On October 17, 2022, Joseph LaFleur, the attorney ad litem for L.T., filed a notice

of appeal challenging the trial court’s final judgment denying the petition in intervention

filed by L.T.’s grandparents and awarding permanent managing conservatorship of L.T.

to the Department of Family and Protective Services. Thereafter, on December 12, 2022,

LaFleur filed a notice of nonsuit, which we construe as a motion to dismiss this appeal.

In this filing, LaFleur indicates that “the interest of L.T. can be met, and in fact are being

met, by methods other than continuing this Appeal.”

After review, we grant LaFleur’s motion to dismiss this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P.
