IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

TYLER, TEXAS

§         

THE OFFICE OF THE

ATTORNEY GENERAL OF TEXAS,        §          ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

RELATOR    

§         

MEMORANDUM OPINION

            On August 15, 2007, this court delivered an opinion conditionally granting the petition for writ of mandamus filed by the Office of the Attorney General of Texas as relator.  That opinion ordered Respondent to vacate his order signed on June 26, 2007 granting Dale Eugene Duke’s request for genetic testing.  Subsequently, on August 27, 2007, Respondent signed an order complying with this court’s order and opinion of August 15, 2007.

            All issues attendant to this original proceeding having been disposed of, this mandamus proceeding has now been rendered moot; therefore, the writ need not issue.  Accordingly, this original proceeding is dismissed.
