EX PARTE DANIEL ARCENEAUX
On Appeal from the 359th District Court
Montgomery County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 12-09-10077-CR
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Daniel Arceneaux appealed an order denying his application for a writ of habeas corpus for a reduction of a pre-trial bond. Counsel for the appellant subsequently notified the Court that the underlying criminal case has been resolved through a plea bargain agreement. Issues concerning pre-trial bail are moot when the accused is no longer subject to pre-trial confinement. See Martinez v. State, 826 S.W.2d 620, 620 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992); Bennet v. State, 818 S.W.2d 199, 200 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1991, no pet.). The appeal is dismissed as moot.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
