MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Garza

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

          On October 9, 2009, relator, Leonel Villarreal Cantu, filed a petition for writ of mandamus, a “Request for Emergency Temporary Relief,” and a “Motion to File Appendix Under Seal.” That same day, the Court granted the request for emergency temporary relief and the motion to file appendix under seal, and requested that the real party in interest file a response to relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. Relator has now filed a motion to dismiss this original proceeding. According to the motion to dismiss, the parties have compromised and settled their differences.

          The Court, having considered the documents on file and relator’s motion to dismiss this original proceeding, is of the opinion that the motion should be granted. Accordingly, the stay previously imposed by this Court is LIFTED and this original proceeding is DISMISSED without reference to the merits thereof.

          IT IS SO ORDERED. 

                                                                                      PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the 29th

day of December, 2009.
