NUMBER 13-08-295-CV
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
IN RE MERCURY INSURANCE COMPANY
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Benavides
Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
Relator, Mercury Insurance Company, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the
above cause arguing that the trial court abused its discretion in denying relator’s motion
to compel arbitration. On May 15, 2008, this Court requested a response from Angela
Samples, the real party in interest. Relator has now filed an agreed motion to dismiss this
original proceeding on grounds that the parties have settled and compromised their
dispute.
The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus
and motion to dismiss, is of the opinion that the motion to dismiss should be granted.
Accordingly, we GRANT the motion and DISMISS the petition for writ of mandamus without
addressing the merits thereof.
PER CURIAM
Memorandum Opinion delivered and
filed this 10th day of July, 2008.
