IN RE THE STATE OF TEXAS EX REL. KIM OGG, Relator
Original Proceeding
Petition for Writ of Mandamus
Petition for Writ of Prohibition
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg, representing the State of Texas, filed a petition seeking mandamus and prohibition relief. On October 30, 2020, the State filed a motion to dismiss this proceeding as moot because the underlying trial court case was dismissed and refiled as a felony complaint. A certified copy of the dismissal and felony complaint were provided to this Court. No response or opposition to the motion was filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.3(a). We have not issued a decision in the case.
The underlying case is State of Texas v. Celso Elias Sapon-Rosales, cause number 2282643, pending in the County Criminal Court at Law No. 8 of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Franklin Bynum presiding.
Because the trial court cause from which this proceeding arises has been dismissed, we grant the State's motion and dismiss this proceeding as moot. We dismiss any pending motions as moot.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Keyes, Hightower, and Countiss. Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).
