IN THE MATTER OF N.R., A JUVENILE

On Appeal from the Juvenile Court
Taylor County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 5910-J

MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an accelerated appeal from an order in which the juvenile court waived
its jurisdiction over Appellant, N.R., and transferred the cause to a criminal district
court. See TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. § 54.02(j) (West 2022), § 56.01(c)(1)(A), (h)
(West Supp. 2024). Appellant has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal pursuant to
Rule 42.1(a)(1) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, which is signed by him
and his counsel. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1). A waiver of Appellant’s right to
appeal is attached to the motion, which states that Appellant understands the
consequences of his waiver and that “he is freely and voluntarily dismissing his
appeal.” The waiver is also signed by Appellant and his counsel. The motion
complies with Section 51.09 of the Texas Family Code. See FAM. § 51.09; In re
A.S.H., 615 S.W.3d 699 (Tex. App.—Amarillo 2021, no pet.) (mem. op.).
We grant Appellant’s motion and dismiss this appeal.
