In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-21-00034-CV
IN RE RODNEY TURNIPSEED AND DALLAS CONTAINER
CORPORATION, Relators Original Proceeding from the 101st Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-20-06444
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Myers, Partida-Kipness, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Partida-Kipness
In their January 15, 2021 petition for writ of mandamus and motion for stay, relators contend that the trial court should have abated the underlying suit until real party in interest cured the defects in her capacity to bring survival claims. In her response to relators’ motion for stay, real party advised us that she has filed an amended petition removing the survival claims from the underlying suit.
Accordingly, we asked the parties to file letter briefs addressing whether relators’ request for mandamus relief is moot.
In their letter briefs, the parties agree that this original proceeding is moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus, and deny the stay motion as moot.
