Marcos Antonio Olivares-Calderon v. State

Opinion

Opinion issued August 29, 2019

In The

Court of Appeals

For The

First District of Texas

2018. The granting of a motion for new trial restores the case to its position before

the former trial and renders an appeal moot. See TEX. R. APP. P. 21.9(b); Douglas v.

State, No. 01-17- 00276-CR, 2017 WL 1738094, at *1 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st

Dist.] May 4, 2017, no. pet) (mem. op., not designated for publication). Because

there is no longer an appealable judgment of conviction, this Court has no

jurisdiction over the appeal. See Waller v. State, 931 S.W.2d 640, 643–44 (Tex.

App.—Dallas 1996, no pet.). After being notified that this appeal was subject to

dismissal, none of the parties to the appeal filed a response.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal as moot. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(f). We

dismiss any pending motions as moot.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Lloyd and Goodman.

Do not publish.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