Before BOYD, C.J., and REAVIS and JOHNSON, JJ.

Appellant Romana Lucia Ruiz gave notice of appeal on December 5, 2001. However, she has now filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, which both she and her attorney have signed.

Because the motion to dismiss meets the requirements of Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.2(a) and this court has not delivered its decision prior to receiving appellant's motion to dismiss, the motion is hereby granted.

Having dismissed this appeal at appellant's request, no motion for rehearing will be entertained, and our mandate will issue forthwith.
