COURT OF APPEALS
SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS
FORT WORTH
NO. 2-07-343-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF E.H.,
A MINOR CHILD
------------
FROM THE 323RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY
------------
MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]
------------
Appellant M.J. appeals from the trial court=s order awarding permanent managing conservatorship of her then seventeen-year-old son E.H. to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. The trial court did not order M.J. to pay child support. Because E.H.=s eighteenth birthday was on May 29, 2008, there is no longer any live dispute.[2]
We therefore dismiss this appeal as moot.[3]
