Tammy Elsie Mediati v. State ( 2019 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-19-00249-CR Tammy Elsie Mediati, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE 33RD DISTRICT COURT OF BURNET COUNTY NO. 47815, THE HONORABLE J. ALLAN GARRETT, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION Counsel for Tammy Elsie Mediati has filed a motion to permanently abate this appeal in light of the fact that, he advises us, Mediati has died. Where, as here, an appellant in a criminal case dies after an appeal is perfected but before the appellate court issues the mandate, the court is to permanently abate the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 7.1(a)(2). Accordingly, we grant the motion and permanently abate the appeal. __________________________________________ Thomas J.
