IN RE JOHN CLOUD, Relator


Dismiss Writ and Opinion Filed September 11, 2013

Original Proceeding from the 195th Judicial District Court

Dallas County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. F93-61603, F93-61604


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Before Justices FitzGerald, Lang, and Myers

Opinion by Justice FitzGerald

Relator contends the trial court failed to rule on his motion for DNA testing. The facts and issues are well known to the parties, so we need not recount them herein. Relator's motion for DNA testing was denied by the trial court on August 26, 2013. Therefore, the issues presented in this petition are moot. See Dow Chem. Co. v. Garcia, 909 S.W.2d 503, 505 (Tex. 1995) (orig. proceeding), In re Gill, No. 06-04-00090-CV, 2004 WL 1884498 at *1 (Tex. App.-Texarkana Aug. 24, 2004, orig. proceeding). Accordingly, we DISMISS relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
