NO. 12-23-00047-CV IN THE COURT OF APPEALS TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT TYLER, TEXAS

IN RE: § VOLT POWER, LLC, § ORIGINAL PROCEEDING RELATOR § MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM Volt Power, LLC filed this original proceeding to challenge Respondent’s order granting a motion to compel production filed by Real Party in Interest, Quandel Ray Morgan. 1 On April 5, 2023, this Court conditionally granted the petition in part and directed Respondent to vacate only that portion of his January 3, 2023, order compelling responses to Requests 83, 85, and 91 from Morgan’s first request for production, and in its stead, to issue an order imposing limits on these requests and compelling Volt to respond to the production requests as limited. We denied Volt’s petition in all other respects. By an order signed on April 13, Respondent complied with this Court’s opinion and order, rendering this proceeding moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus as moot.
