                                                   V.

UNIFUND CCR PARTNERS                                                        APPELLEE

                                               ----------

          FROM COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 2 OF DENTON COUNTY

                                              ------------

                  MEMORANDUM OPINION^[1] AND JUDGMENT

                                              ------------

Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal from the trial court=s June 29, 2009 AJudgment.@  The trial court subsequently granted appellant=s motion for new trial on October 8, 2009, while it still had plenary jurisdiction over the case.  See Tex. R. Civ. P. 329b(e).

On October 19, 2009, we informed the parties that it appeared the trial court=s granting of the motion for new trial rendered this appeal moot and that the appeal would be dismissed as moot unless, on or before October 29, 2009, any party desiring to continue the appeal filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  Neither party filed a response.

Accordingly, on this court=s own motion, we dismiss the appeal as moot.  See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 43.2(f).

PER CURIAM

PANEL:  GARDNER, WALKER, and MCCOY, JJ.
