WILLIS LEE SNEED, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 339th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1235221

MEMORANDUM OPINION

A jury convicted appellant of possession of less than one gram of cocaine.  On February 5, 2010, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for 547 days in the State Jail Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant filed a notice of appeal on February 5, 2010. 

On August 5, 2010, this court ordered a hearing to determine why appellant’s counsel had not filed a brief in this appeal.  On May 24, 2010, the trial court conducted the hearing, and the record of the hearing was filed in this court on August 9, 2010.

At the hearing, appellant, together with his counsel, confirmed that appellant had discussed the issues with counsel and determined that appellant no longer wished to pursue his appeal.

On August 18, 2010, appellant filed a written motion to withdraw the appeal and attached a transcription of the above-referenced hearing.  Because this Court has not delivered an opinion, we grant appellant=s request.

Accordingly, we order the appeal dismissed.  We direct the Clerk of the Court to issue the mandate of the Court immediately.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Anderson, Frost, and Brown.
