Opinion

DISMISSED and Opinion Filed November 1, 2024

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-24-01175-CV IN RE PHILLIP HAYES LEE DESCENDANT’S TRUST AND PETER AUSTIN LEE DESCENDANT’S TRUST CREATED UNDER THE AMENDED AND REINSTATED ANN HAYES LEE REVOCABLE TRUST AGREEMENT DATED JULY 6, 2002, Relators Original Proceeding from the 298th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-19-00996 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Partida-Kipness, Nowell, and Miskel Opinion by Justice Miskel Before the Court is relators’ October 4, 2024 petition for writ of mandamus.

Relators seek to compel the trial court to enter final judgment following a bench trial that concluded in April 2022. On October 9, 2024, we requested a response to relators’ petition. On October 21, 2024, the trial court filed a response enclosing a copy of its October 21, 2024 final judgment. The trial court’s final judgment delivers all the relief relators are requesting and entitled to and thus renders this mandamus proceeding moot. See In re Johnson, 599 S.W.3d 311, 312 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2020, orig. proceeding).

Accordingly, we dismiss as moot relators’ petition for writ of mandamus.

See id.
