NUMBER 13-25-00439-CR

COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

EX PARTE ALFRED DALE VEGIA

ON APPEAL FROM THE 343RD DISTRICT COURT
OF SAN PATRICIO COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Tijerina and Justices Silva and Cron
Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Tijerina

This cause is before the Court on its own motion. On August 20, 2025, pro se

appellant filed a notice of appeal in case number S-25-5480CV-C. We are now of the

opinion that appellant has abandoned the appeal.

On March 12, 2026, after appellant failed to file a brief or otherwise respond to the

notices, we abated the appeal and remanded the case to the trial court for it to determine

whether appellant was entitled to court-appointed counsel, whether the appeal is moot,
and whether appellant desires to prosecute the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(4).

Upon review of the trial court’s findings, it determined the appeal is now moot.

Accordingly, based on the trial court’s findings of abandonment and appellant’s

failure to file a brief, the appeal is reinstated and hereby dismissed for want of

prosecution. See id.
