in Re Greg Abbott, in His Official Capacity as Governor of the State of Texas

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas

No. 04-21-00349-CV

IN RE Greg ABBOTT, in his Official Capacity as Governor of the State of Texas,

Relator

Original Proceeding 1

ORDER

On August 20, 2021, Relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which the only relief requested was to stay the trial court’s August 12, 2021 temporary restraining order (TRO). Relator separately sought emergency relief to stay the TRO pending resolution of the petition. On September 2, 2021, the TRO expired, and the trial court granted the real party in interest’s temporary injunction.

Because the only relief the petition sought was to stay the trial court’s TRO, which has expired, Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).

It is so ORDERED on September 15, 2021.
