DERRICK BRANNON SULLIVAN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS


ON APPELLANT'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW FROM THE DALLAS COURT OF APPEALS DALLAS COUNTY

Per curiam. OPINION

We granted the Appellant's petition to determine whether the court of appeals erred in refusing to allow Appellant to submit a pro se brief after the court allowed the appointed attorney to withdraw from the case. Having examined the record, we conclude that our decision to grant review was improvident. We therefore dismiss the Appellant's petition for discretionary review as improvidently granted.
