COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH

NOS. 02-17-00046-CR 02-17-00047-CR

JOSHUA ERIC TOWNLEY APPELLANT

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS STATE

------------

FROM THE 43RD DISTRICT COURT OF PARKER COUNTY TRIAL COURT NO. CR16-0114, CR16-0115

ORDER

On March 9, 2017, we dismissed these appeals as moot because the trial

court timely granted appellant’s motion for new trial. See Tex. R. App. P. 21.9(b).

Unbeknownst to this court, before we dismissed these appeals, the trial court

signed amended orders denying appellant’s motion for new trial and rescinding

the original orders granting appellant’s motion for new trial. Therefore, these

appeals are not moot. Accordingly, on the court’s own motion, we withdraw our memorandum

opinion and judgment dated March 9, 2017, and reinstate these causes on the

court’s docket. See Tex. R. App. P. 19.1(a).

The clerk of this court is directed to transmit a copy of this order to the

attorneys of record, the trial court judge, the trial court clerk, and the court

reporter.

DATED March 16, 2017.
