TASF, LLC d/b/a Turnaround Special Forces, LLC, Eddie Garza, Clint Dewispelaere, Alex Castillo, and John Ruff v. Turn2 Specialty Companies, LLC and Turn2 Workforce Solutions, LLC
281st District Court of Harris County No. 2020-80734
ORDER
Peter Kelly, Judge
On February 5, 2021, the trial court entered a temporary injunction in this case, setting the case for trial on the merits on July 6, 2021. An interlocutory appeal of that order is pending in this court. No party has informed this court of subsequent proceedings in the trial court.
"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 Grp., P.A., 802 S.W.2d 235, 236 (Tex. 1991). When a case becomes moot, the court of appeals must dismiss the appeal. See id.
Both the appellants and the appellees are ordered to submit a letter brief not to exceed 2, 000 words informing this court whether (1) a final order in the trial court has rendered this appeal moot, and (2) whether any other action taken by the trial court, including modification of the temporary injunction, has rendered this appeal moot. See Danbill Partners, L.P. v. Sandoval, 621 S.W.3d 738, 753 (Tex. App.-El Paso 2020, no pet.) (holding that trial court order modifying temporary injunction by vacating trial date indefinitely pending interlocutory appeal rendered temporary injunction void under Texas Rule of Civil Procedure 683 by removing required trial setting).
The parties' letter briefs are due no later than September 28, 2021.
It is so ORDERED.
