                                                             Lamar County, Texas

                                          Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

                                            Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley


                                                     MEMORANDUM  OPINION

 

            Appellant, Kendall Price Corpus, filed a notice of appeal on February 1, 2010, from his conviction of stalking.  Corpus also filed a motion for new trial.  The trial court subsequently granted that motion for new trial. 

            When the trial court grants a motion for new trial, it restores the case to its position before the former trial.  Tex. R. App. P. 21.9(b).  Because there is no conviction from which to appeal, we have no jurisdiction to consider Corpus’s appeal.  See Waller v. State, 931 S.W.2d 640, 643–44 (Tex. App.––Dallas 1996, no pet.).

            Consequently, Corpus’s motion to dismiss is granted, and we dismiss the appeal as moot.
