We have before the Court a request from the appellant, Norman Joseph Gordon, to withdraw his appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.2. A request to dismiss the appeal is signed by appellant personally and joined by counsel of record. No opinion has issued in this appeal. The motion is granted, and the appeal is therefore dismissed.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
