MEMORANDUM OPINION¹ AND JUDGMENT

----------

        We have considered appellant’s “Motion To Withdraw And Dismiss The Appeal.”  Although appellant has not signed the motion in compliance with rule 42.2(a) of the rules of appellate procedure, appellant stated at an abatement hearing held in the trial court on March 12, 2004, that he no longer wishes to pursue his appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 42.2(a).  Because the record of that hearing is before us, we suspend rule 42.2(a)’s requirement that appellant sign the motion to dismiss the appeal. Id.; see Tex. R. App. P. 2.  No decision of this court having been delivered before we received this motion, we grant the motion and dismiss the appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
