COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG

IN RE SERGIO IGNACIO TOVAR, JR.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Vela

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam ⁽¹⁾

Relator, Sergio Ignacio Tovar, Jr., filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above cause on August 21, 2009, through which he complains that the trial court erred in refusing to rule on and grant relator's motion for nunc pro tunc judgment reflecting the time credit to which he is allegedly entitled.

The real party in interest has now filed an unopposed motion to dismiss this petition for writ of mandamus. According to the motion, the matters in this original proceeding have been resolved and this proceeding has been rendered moot.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus and the unopposed motion to dismiss, is of the opinion that the parties are entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, the motion to dismiss is GRANTED, and the petition for writ of mandamus is DISMISSED AS MOOT without reference to the merits thereof.

PER CURIAM
