MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]
------------
Appellant Quillens Edwin Stevens, Jr. appeals from the trial court=s November 20, 2006 denial of relief on his application for writ of habeas corpus seeking a bond reduction pending appeal of his conviction and sentence under article 44.04(d) of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure.[2]
Article 44.04(d) provides that a postconviction bond may be increased or decreased Apending determination of any motion for new trial or pending final determination of the appeal.@[3] This court affirmed Appellant=s conviction and sentence on August 3, 2006,[4] and the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals refused Appellant=s petition for review on November 1, 2006 and finally disposed of the case on December 11, 2006. There is therefore no pending appeal on Appellant=s conviction and sentence. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as moot.[5]
