VALENTINE CASARES, APPELLANT

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE

On Appeal from the 140th District Court Lubbock County, Texas Trial Court No. 2015-405,167, Honorable Jim Bob Darnell, Presiding

October 2, 2015

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.

Appellant, Valentine Casares, appealed a judgment convicting him of two counts

of aggravated sexual assault of a child, indecency with a child by contact, and

indecency with a child by exposure. Appellant was sentenced to confinement in the

Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for a period of 50

years for each aggravated sexual assault conviction, and 20 years for each indecency

with a child conviction. Each of the sentences will run concurrently. Appellant’s counsel

filed appellant’s Motion to Dismiss Appeal on September 21, 2015. Because the motion meets the requirements of Texas Rule of Appellate

Procedure 42.2(a), and this Court has not delivered its decision prior to receiving it, the

motion is hereby granted and the appeal is dismissed. Having dismissed the appeal at

appellant=s request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained and our mandate will

issue forthwith.
