MEMORANDUM OPINION
L. ARON PEÑA, JR. JUSTICE
Appellant, Karen Rena Rooks, perfected this appeal from a judgment of conviction entered by the 130th District Court of Matagorda County, Texas in trial court cause number 19-015. On October 1, 2024, we received a supplemental clerk's record containing a Death Verification issued and certified by the County Clerk of Matagorda County on September 17, 2024. According to the verification, appellant's date of death was after appeal was perfected, but before this Court issued its mandate.
Therefore, in accordance with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 7.1(a)(2), we hereby order the appeal permanently abated. See Tex. R. App. P. 7.1(a)(2).
