In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont __________________ NO. 09-24-00358-CV __________________ FREDDIE L. WALKER, Appellant V. STEPHANIE RENEE DAVILA AND VERNON RINGER, Appellees __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 260th District Court Orange County, Texas Trial Cause No. D230267-C __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On October 25, 2024, Freddie L. Walker filed a notice of appeal from unspecified “denial interlocutory orders in the above cause.” We questioned our jurisdiction and asked the parties to identify the statute or rule authorizing an appeal at this time. In a response, Walker argued he should be allowed to pursue a permissive appeal, but he did not claim that the trial court had permitted an appeal from an interlocutory order that would not otherwise be appealable. See generally Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(d).

A supplemental clerk’s record filed on November 19, 2024, contains the trial court’s November 18, 2024, order granting Walker’s Voluntary Motion to Dismiss Without Prejudice and dismissing the cause without prejudice. Upon receiving the supplemental clerk’s record, the Clerk of the Court notified the parties that unless the Court received a valid objection the appeal would proceed as a regular appeal.

Walker filed his brief on December 16, 2024.

On December 19, 2024, Stephanie Renee Davila filed a motion to dismiss the appeal. Davila contends there is no pending controversy between the parties and the appeal is moot. Walker did not respond to the motion, nor does he argue in his brief that the appeal is not moot. Accordingly, we grant the motion and dismiss the appeal.

See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).

APPEAL DISMISSED.
