MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Prophet Ronald Dwayne Whitfield, proceeding pro se, has filed two related civil petitions for writs of mandamus, in one document, seeking to compel the respondent trial judges to vacate their orders granting motions to compel arbitration and for stays of litigation in the two underlying civil proceedings.
The unrelated underlying criminal cause numbers listed in relator's petitions (Nos. 492674, 525468, 528856, and 557164) were assigned to the Fourteenth Court of Appeals (14-15-00659-CR, 14-15-00660-CR, 14-15-00661-CR, and 14-15-00662-CR, respectively), while No. 617718 was assigned to 01-15-00677-CR.
The underlying civil cases are Prophet Ronald Dwayne Whitfield, ex rel. v. Big Star Honda, John Doe, et al., No. 2015-08974, in the 295th District Court of Harris County, the Honorable Caroline E. Baker presiding (the related appeal remains pending under 01-15-00448-CV), and Prophet Ronald Dwayne Whitfield v. Clear Lake Nissan and Santander Consumer USA, Inc., No. 2015-22666, in the 333rd District Court of Harris County, the Honorable Joseph J. Halbach Jr. presiding (the related appeal remains pending under 01-15-00645-CV). --------
We deny the petitions for writs of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a), (d). We dismiss all pending motions as moot.
