IN RE ANDRES WAIBEL, Relator

 

 

 

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

 

 

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On February 26, 2009, relator, Andres Waibel, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  In the petition, relator requests that we compel the respondent, the Honorable Roberta Lloyd, presiding judge of County Court at Law No. 4 of Harris County, to continue the March 2, 2009 bench trial, enter a docket control order setting deadlines for discovery, intervention, or parties, and setting a trial date no earlier than forty-five days from the date of the docket control order.  On February 27, 2009, we issued an order staying the March 2, 2009 bench trial, and requested a response from real party in interest, Melinda Thompkins.


On March 4, 2009, relator and Thompkins filed a notice in this court of their agreement that the trial court sign a docket control order setting deadlines for discovery, intervention, or parties, and setting a trial date no earlier than forty-five days from the date of the docket control order.  Relator=s requested relief is moot. 

Accordingly, we deny relator=s petition for writ of mandamus.  We further lift the stay issued on February 27, 2009.

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Anderson and Seymore.
