CONNOR LEE CORALLI v. THE STATE OF TEXAS (2017)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Connor Lee Coralli appeals his conviction for driving while intoxicated. On October 19, 2017, the Court received notice from the court reporter that appellant had not paid or made arrangements to pay for the reporter's record of his trial.

On November 6, 2017, the Court abated the appeal to allow the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine whether appellant desired to prosecute the appeal. During the trial court's hearing, on November 16, 2017, retained counsel informed the trial court that in the most recent communication with appellant on October 24, 2017, appellant stated that he did not wish to pursue the appeal. Appellant's counsel said that although appellant indicated he would sign a motion to dismiss the appeal, he had not responded to communication attempts since that date.

We adopted the trial court's findings that appellant did not wish to pursue the appeal and had abandoned the appeal. We then ordered the appeal submitted without the reporter's record and brief. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(4). Without a brief, no issues are before us. Finding no fundamental error, we affirm the trial court's judgment.

170756F.U05
