JOHN C. GOLFIS, JULIE NGUYEN, SEIKILOS HOLDINGS, LLC, AND SEIKILOS FX STUDIOS LLC, Appellants v. EDWARD "LANNY" HOUILLION AND HOUILLION FAMILY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, Appellees
On Appeal from the 134th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 12-13053
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Bridges, Fillmore, and Lewis
Opinion by Justice Lewis
On July 24, 2013, the trial court granted its Amended Temporary Injunction at the request of appellee Houillion Family Limited Partnership. Appellants John C. Golfis, Julie Nguyen, Seiklos Holdings, LLC, and Seikilos FX Studios LLC filed this interlocutory appeal challenging the temporary injunction. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE ANN. § 51.014(a)(4). While the interlocutory appeal was pending, the trial court proceeded to trial and entered a final judgment.
If, while on the appeal of the granting or denying of the temporary injunction, the trial court renders final judgment, the case on appeal becomes moot. Isuani v. Manske-Sheffield Radiology Group, P.A., 802 S.W.2d 235, 236 (Tex. 1991). When a case becomes moot on appeal, the appeal is dismissed. Id.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal as moot.
