                        MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On January 20, 2017, we received a suggestion of death indicating that the

appellant, James Dean Shaw, is deceased. Because the death occurred after Shaw

perfected the appeals and before we issued our mandate, the appeals must be




                                       1
permanently abated. See Tex. R. App. P. 7.1(a)(2). Accordingly, the appeals are

permanently abated.

      APPEALS ABATED.
