EX PARTE JORGE ARTURO MAR JR. __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 359th District Court Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause Nos. 20-09-11180-CR & 18-10-13648-CR __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION

Jorge Arturo Mar Jr. appealed from orders denying his applications for a writ of habeas corpus, in which he sought reduction of pretrial bond. The District Clerk subsequently notified this Court that appellant has been tried by jury and convicted in both cases. Issues regarding pretrial bail are moot when the accused is no longer subject to pretrial confinement. See Martinez v. State, 826 S.W.2d 620, 620 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992); Bennet v. State, 818 S.W.2d 199, 200 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1991, no pet.). Accordingly, we dismiss these appeals as moot.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
