Trial Court Cause No. 2015-27771
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On December 1, 2017, relators Jacobs Field Services North America, Inc.,
Jacobs Engineering Group Inc., Jacobs Engineering, Inc., and NorWest Hydraulic &
Pneumatic, Inc. filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t
Code Ann. § 22.221 (West Supp. 2017); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition,
relators ask this Court to compel the Honorable Fredericka Phillips, presiding judge
of the 61st District Court of Harris County, to set aside her December 1, 2017 orders
(1) granting real parties in interest’s motion to exclude relators’ witnesses; and (2)
denying relators’ motion for continuance.
Relators filed an unopposed motion to dismiss their petition because the
parties have settled the case. The requested relief is now moot. Therefore, the
motion is GRANTED.
Accordingly, relators’ petition for writ of mandamus is ordered dismissed.
Relators’ motion for temporary relief is denied as moot.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Christopher, Brown, and Wise.
