EX PARTE JERRY WAYNE JONES
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Opinion By Justice Moseley
Jerry Wayne Jones filed petitions for writ of habeas corpus seeking reduction of his pretrial bonds. The trial judge denied relief, and these appeals followed. We have adopted the trial court's finding that appellant has been convicted of the charged offenses. Because appellant has now been convicted, he is no longer subject to pretrial confinement, making the appeals moot. See Martinez v. State, 826 S.W.2d 620, 620 (Tex.Crim.App.1992); Taylor v. State, 676 S.W.2d 135, 136 (Tex.Crim.App.1984) (per curiam). We dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.
