Opinion

DISMISSED and Opinion Filed August 7, 2024

S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-24-00899-CV IN RE BYRON KEITH MCHANNY, Relator Original Proceeding from the 303rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-16-15496 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Partida-Kipness, Nowell, and Miskel Opinion by Justice Miskel Before the Court is relator’s July 31, 2024 petition for writ of mandamus challenging the trial court’s temporary orders. Based on our review of the petition and record, however, the trial court has since issued a final order resolving all claims at issue. “It is well-settled that a temporary order is superseded by entry of a final order, rendering moot any complaint about the temporary order.” Interest of B.W.S., No. 05-20-00343-CV, 2022 WL 2712494, at *4 (Tex. App.—Dallas July 13, 2022, no pet.) (mem. op. nunc pro tunc). We lack jurisdiction over a moot proceeding. See Elec. Reliability Council of Tex., Inc. v. Panda Power Generation Infrastructure Fund, LLC, 619 S.W.3d 628, 634–35 (Tex. 2021) (orig. proceeding) (discussing mootness doctrine).

Accordingly, we dismiss relator’s petition for writ of mandamus for lack of jurisdiction. See id. Additionally, based on our review, relator’s petition and its attached appendix contain unredacted sensitive data—such as a minor’s birthdate— in violation of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.9.

Accordingly, we strike relator’s petition and its attached appendix.
