Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-13-00778-CV
Comfort ROBERTS,
Appellant
v.
Lloyd Douglas Enterprises Inc.Appellee
LLOYD DOUGLAS ENTERPRISES INC.,
Appellee
From the 166th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2013-CI-12260
Honorable Solomon Casseb, III, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Marialyn Barnard, Justice
Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Delivered and Filed: February 12, 2014
DISMISSED AS MOOT
Appellant, who is pro se, appears to be appealing from a temporary restraining order and a
subsequent temporary injunction. However, on December 16, 2013, the trial court signed a
Permanent Injunction. The Permanent Injunction is signed “approved as to form and substance”
by the attorneys for all parties, including appellant’s attorney.
On January 23, 2014, appellee filed a motion to dismiss on the grounds that the appeal
from the temporary restraining order and the temporary injunction is now moot. In response to a
04-13-00778-CV
show cause order from this court, appellant argued a justiciable controversy continues to exist
before this court because (1) a review of court records would show an abuse of judicial powers;
(2) his constitutional rights were violated; (3) he did not receive a copy of the motion to dismiss;
and (4) he did not enter into an agreed permanent injunction nor has he been served with a copy
of the permanent injunction.
The issuance of the temporary restraining order and the temporary injunction were
rendered moot by the trial court’s issuance of the permanent injunction. See Isuani v. Manske-
Sheffield Radiology Group, P.A., 802 S.W.2d 235, 236-37 (Tex. 1991) (holding appeals court erred
in reaching merits of interlocutory appeal of temporary injunction after trial court entered
permanent injunction rendering temporary injunction moot); Richards v. Mena, 820 S.W.2d 372,
372 (Tex. 1991) (appeal of temporary injunction rendered moot by rendering of permanent
injunction). Because appellant has not shown any basis for continuing this appeal, we grant the
motion to dismiss and dismiss this appeal from the temporary restraining order and the temporary
injunction as moot, without prejudice to the timely appeal, if any, of the final judgment granting
the permanent injunction.
