Opinion

Opinion filed October 23, 2025

In The Eleventh Court of Appeals ___________ No. 11-25-00204-CR ___________ CORNELIO ZEPEDA DELGADO, JR., Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the County Court at Law Taylor County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1-359-25 MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant, Cornelio Zepeda Delgado, Jr., pleaded guilty to assault family violence, a Class A misdemeanor. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.01(a)(1), (b) (West Supp. 2024). Pursuant to a negotiated plea bargain agreement between Appellant and the State, the trial court sentenced Appellant to 180 days confinement in the Taylor County Jail. Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal and requested counsel, which the trial court appointed to represent Appellant in this appeal.

When this appeal was docketed, we notified Appellant that the trial court had certified that (1) this is a plea bargain case in which Appellant has no right of appeal, and (2) Appellant had waived his right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d); see also TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 44.02 (West 2018). We requested that Appellant’s counsel respond and show grounds to continue this appeal, and we notified him that the appeal was subject to dismissal. Appellant’s counsel has responded with a motion to voluntarily dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). Appellant’s motion states that he “no longer desires to pursue an appeal.” The motion is signed by Appellant and Appellant’s counsel in compliance with Rule 42.2(a). See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a).

We grant Appellant’s motion and dismiss this appeal.1
