v. §

SPOKANE EQUITIES LIMITED §
PARTNERSHIP, (TC # 2016DTX0433)
§
Appellee.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellee, Spokane Equities Limited Partnership, has filed an unopposed motion to
dismiss this appeal as moot. It is well established that a court is prohibited from deciding moot
controversies. National Collegiate Athletic Association v. Jones, 1 S.W.3d 83, 86 (Tex. 1999).
A case is moot if a justiciable controversy ceases to exist at any stage of the legal proceedings,
including the appeal. In re Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc., 166 S.W.3d 732, 737 (Tex. 2005). As
reflected in the motion and attached documents, the parties have settled the underlying disputes
between them. Accordingly, we grant the motion and dismiss the appeal as moot.
