JASON VON RAMOS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 176th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 832416

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Because no brief had been filed and no attorney had entered an appearance in this Court on appellant's behalf, on June 20, 2002, we abated this appeal and ordered a hearing in the trial court. Among the issues the trial judge was to consider was whether appellant desired to prosecute the appeal. The record of that hearing has been filed in this Court. At the hearing, appellant stated that he wished to withdraw the appeal.

No written motion to withdraw the appeal has been filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.2(a). However, we believe that good cause exists to suspend the operation of Rule 42.2(a) in this case in accordance with Rule 2. See Tex. R. App. P. 2. We have not yet issued a decision. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

The clerk of this Court is directed to issue mandate immediately. Tex. R. App. P. 18.1.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Schneider, and Justices Nuchia and Radack.

Do not publish. Tex. R. App. P. 47.
