D/B/A LONGVIEW REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER, § ORIGINAL PROCEEDING RELATOR § MEMORANDUM OPINION OF DISMISSAL PER CURIAM Real Parties in Interest Korry Shelton and Stephanie Shelton, individually and on behalf of R.S., a minor (collectively the Sheltons) filed a motion for rehearing, in which they represent that the parties entered into a settlement agreement regarding the underlying litigation, which renders the issues in this original proceeding moot. 1 We abated our order granting conditional relief and requested a response from Relator Longview Medical Center, L.P. d/b/a/ Longview Regional Medical Center (LRMC), but LRMC declined to respond.
On August 22, 2024, the Sheltons provided this court with a signed copy of the settlement agreement between the parties and a joint motion to dismiss this original proceeding. Because we conclude that the parties satisfied the requirements of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 42.1(a)(2), we grant the Sheltons’ motion for rehearing and, further, grant the parties’ joint motion to dismiss. Accordingly, this court’s opinion of July 10, 2024, is withdrawn, our order by which
1 Respondent is the Honorable Vincent Dulweber, Judge of the County Court at Law Number 2 in Gregg County, Texas. we conditionally granted in part and denied in part mandamus relief, is vacated, and LRMC’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot. Our stay of July 12, 2024 is lifted.
