Opinion
TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-20-00497-CV
Ruth Hughs in her Official Capacity as the Texas Secretary of State, Appellant v. Move Texas Action Fund, Appellee
FROM THE 419TH DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY NO. D-1-GN-20-005507, THE HONORABLE TIM SULAK, JUDGE PRESIDING
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Texas Secretary of State Ruth Hughs has filed an unopposed motion to dismiss her interlocutory appeal for want of jurisdiction. Hughs argues that her appeal is moot because appellee Move Texas Action Fund has filed a notice of nonsuit in the district court. We agree that the nonsuit has rendered the case moot. See University of Tex. Med. Branch at Galveston v. Estate of Blackmon ex rel. Shultz, 195 S.W.3d 98, 100–01 (Tex. 2006) (per curiam) (dismissing pending appeal from denial of plea to jurisdiction because nonsuit of all claims rendered case moot). We grant Hughs’s motion and dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See id. at 101. __________________________________________ Edward Smith, Justice Before Justices Goodwin, Baker, and Smith Dismissed for Want of Jurisdiction Filed: December 18, 2020
