On Appeal from the 75th District Court, Liberty County, Texas, Trial Cause No. Cr 26047. Appeal Dismissed.

Before McKEITHEN, C.J., GAULTNEY and KREGER, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


This appeal arises from an application for writ of habeas corpus which sought a reduction in the amount set for the appellant's pretrial bail. The appellant subsequently suggested that the appeal has been mooted by his guilty plea and filed an unopposed motion to dismiss the appeal as moot. The State does not challenge the appellant's assertion that subsequent developments in the case render the appeal moot. See Bennett v. State, 818 S.W.2d 199 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1991, no pet.). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
