IN RE Juan Gabriel CISNEROS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Original Mandamus Proceeding PER CURIAM Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED AS MOOT
This proceeding arises out of Cause No. 88-02-02179-CR, styled The State of Texas v. Juan Gabriel Cisneros, pending in the 79th Judicial District Court, Brooks County, Texas, the Honorable Federico Hinojosa presiding.
On June 4, 2018, relator filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the trial court's refusal to rule on his application for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure 11.08. On July 2, 2018, the respondent informed this court that (1) he appointed an attorney to represent relator and (2) he scheduled a hearing to (a) determine the status of the case, (b) determine how much time defense counsel needs to prepare for the case, and (c) set the case for final hearing. Because relator has received the relief requested in his mandamus petition, we dismiss the petition as moot. See In re Bonilla, 424 S.W.3d 528, 534 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (orig. proceeding) (dismissing petition because relief sought had become moot).
