Appeal from the County Court at Law #6 of El Paso County, Texas (Tc# 20050C04431).

Before BARAJAS, C.J., McCLURE, and CHEW, JJ.


OPINION


Pending before the Court is a motion to dismiss filed by the Appellant pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 42.2(a). In the initial "motion" filed February 23, 2006, Appellant personally signed the request to dismiss the appeal. By letter dated that same date, this clerk's office informed Appellant that the motion did not comply with TEX.R.APP.P. 9.1 and 9.5 and requested an amended motion. On March 7, 2006, Appellant filed another motion that complies with Rules 9.1 and 9.5, but does not contain Appellant's signature. We will construe the initial motion as an exhibit to the second motion. Considering the amended motion and exhibit together, we conclude that Appellant has substantially complied with the requirements of TEX.R.APP.P. 42.2(a) and grant the motion. The clerk of this Court has sent a duplicate copy to the trial court clerk. No decision of this Court having been delivered, the appeal is dismissed.
