THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellant, v. JAMES BRIAN RUPPANNER, Appellee.

§ § § § §

No. 08-06-00331-CR Appeal from the County Court of Andrews County, Texas (TC# 06-0537)

M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N

Pending before the Court is a motion to dismiss filed by the State pursuant to Tex.R.App.P. 42.2(a). By its motion, the State has withdrawn its notice of appeal prior to the appellate court's decision and the written withdrawal is signed by the State's attorney on appeal. See State v. Miles, 994 S.W.2d 410 (Tex.App.--Waco 1999, no pet.). Further, the State filed a duplicate copy of its motion with this Court and that copy has been forwarded to the trial court clerk. Because the State has established compliance with the requirements of Rule 42.2(a), we dismiss the appeal.
