MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant is charged with the offense of murder. The trial court set pre-trial bond at $200,000. Appellant filed a pre-trial application for writ of habeas corpus seeking a bond reduction. This Court has been advised that appellant has been found guilty in a jury trial and has been sentenced to six years' imprisonment. The judgment of guilt renders the issue of pretrial bond moot. See Ex parte Morgan, 335 S.W.2d 766, 766 (Tex.Crim.App. 1960); Ex parte Bennet, 818 S.W.2d 199, 200 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1991, no pet.) (stating that "where the premise of a habeas corpus application is destroyed by subsequent developments, the legal issues raised thereunder are rendered moot."). Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as moot.
