MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, the State of Texas, has filed motions requesting the dismissal of its appeals in appellate cause numbers 10-20-00001-CR and 10-20-00002-CR. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a). We have not issued a decision in these appeals, and the State's attorney has signed both motions to dismiss. We grant the State's motions, and these appeals are hereby dismissed. See id.; see also State v. Miles, Nos. 10-98-376-CR, 10-98-377-CR, & 10-98-378-CR, 1999 Tex. App. LEXIS 4422, at **1-2 (Tex. App.—Waco June 16, 1999, no pet.) (mem. op.) (per curiam) (applying Rule 42.2(a) to appeals filed by the State and concluding that the signature of the State's attorney is a sufficient substitute for the signature of "appellant" required by Rule 42.2(a)).
In both appellate cause numbers, the State has also filed an unopposed motion to expedite the issuance of the mandates. After review, we grant the State's unopposed motions to expedite the issuance of the mandates in appellate cause numbers 10-20-00001-CR and 10-20-00002-CR.
