IN RE: BOBBY YATES
Original Mandamus Proceeding
Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Moseley MEMORANDUM OPINION
Bobby Yates filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which he asked this Court to order the
6th Judicial District Court of Lamar County to withdraw a gag order entered in connection with an
underlying sexual assault case, and also to direct that court to withdraw its denial of his motion for
continuance. We have received a response from the trial judge, with copies of orders attached
which rescind the gag order in its entirety and grant a continuance so that a newly retained attorney
can represent Yates at trial. The issues raised by the mandamus are therefore moot.
We deny the petition for writ of mandamus.
Bailey C. Moseley Justice
Date Submitted: April 25, 2011 Date Decided: April 26, 2011
