Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-21-00349-CV
IN RE Greg ABBOTT, in his Official Capacity as Governor of the State of Texas,
Relator
Original Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Irene Rios, Justice
Lori I. Valenzuela, Justice
Delivered and Filed: September 15, 2021
DISMISSED AS MOOT
On August 20, 2021, Relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which the only relief
requested was to stay the trial court’s August 12, 2021 temporary restraining order (TRO). Relator
separately sought emergency relief to stay the TRO pending resolution of the petition.
On September 2, 2021, the TRO expired, and the trial court granted the real party in
interest’s request for a temporary injunction.
Because the only relief the petition sought was to stay the trial court’s TRO, which has
expired, Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
