Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
No. 06-13-00042-CV
IN RE: KEITH RUSSELL JUDD
Original Mandamus Proceeding
Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Carter
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Keith Russell Judd, currently incarcerated in a Federal Correctional Institute located in
Bowie County, has filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus requesting this Court to order the
Honorable Leon Pesek, Jr., the presiding judge of the 202nd Judicial District Court of Bowie
County, to vacate his order threatening dismissal for want of prosecution if Judd fails to appear
in person at a hearing on May 13, 2013. Judd also requests that we order Judge Pesek to grant
his motion for a no-answer divorce and his motion for a no-evidence summary judgment; Judd
further notes that he has filed “an Affidavit in support of No-Answer Default Judgment.” We
requested a response from the respondent and have been informed a divorce was granted.
In light of the trial court’s judgment granting Judd the relief he has requested, we dismiss
as moot 1 Judd’s petition for writ of mandamus.
