MEMORANDUM OPINION(1)
------------
On April 21, 2003, this court abated this original proceeding to allow the successor judge to reconsider the original judge's complained-of order. See Tex. R. App. P. 7.2(b); Lunsford v. Morris, 746 S.W.2d 471, 471 n.1 (Tex. 1988) (orig. proceeding); State v. Olsen, 163 Tex. 449, 360 S.W.2d 402, 403 (1962) (orig. proceeding). On April 22, relator filed a Motion to Dismiss Petition For Writ of Mandamus, asserting that the issues raised in this original proceeding are moot because the parties have settled. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(1). It is our opinion that the motion should be granted. Therefore, we withdraw our abatement order, grant the motion to dismiss, and dismiss this original proceeding. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.1(a)(1).
