In The Eleventh Court of Appeals ___________ No. 11-20-00207-CR ___________ RACHEL LAKAYE GUILLORY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 358th District Court Ector County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. D-44,283

MEMORANDUM OPINION Rachel Lakaye Guillory filed an appeal from her August 10, 2020 conviction for the offense of aggravated assault. After Appellant filed this appeal, the trial court granted Appellant’s motion for new trial. We dismiss this appeal without prejudice.

On September 22, 2020, the trial court timely signed an order in which it vacated the sentence pronounced by the court and the judgment adjudicating Appellant’s guilt. See TEX. R. APP. P. 21.8. The trial court ordered that a new adjudication hearing be conducted and that the cause be reinstated on the active docket of the trial court. “Granting a new trial restores the case to its position before the former trial.” TEX. R. APP. P. 21.9(b). Thus, Appellant has been returned to a position in which there is no judgment of conviction from which to appeal.

Consequently, no final, appealable judgment remains over which this court currently has jurisdiction. This dismissal does not in any way prejudice Appellant’s right to file a notice of appeal in this cause in the future.

We dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
