No. 04-19-00776-CV
IN RE STATE OF TEXAS, ex. rel. Todd A. “Tadeo” Durden, County Attorney
Original Mandamus Proceeding 1
ORDER
On November 4, 2019, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the
trial court’s July 10, 2019 “Citation to Todd A. Durden to Appear and Show Authority, . . . and
for Consideration of Sanctions, . . . and Order of Protection.” Because we conclude a subsequent
order issued by the trial court rendered the complaints raised in the petition moot, we dismiss
relator’s petition for writ of mandamus as moot.
It is so ORDERED on December 4, 2019.
