Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-26-00325-CV

In re Zachary Brice Knox

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM IRION COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator has filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of a temporary

restraining order (TRO) entered by the trial court on March 27, 2025, denying relator possession

and access to the subject child in the underlying suit affecting the parent-child relationship.

After relator filed his petition, however, the trial court on April 6, 2026, entered an order on

relator’s then-pending motion to vacate the TRO vacating in part and modifying in part the

complained-of order and setting a hearing for temporary orders in the underlying suit. Because

the April 6, 2026 order vacated the complained-of provisions of the TRO, relator’s complaints

about are now moot. Accordingly, we dismiss his petition for writ of mandamus for lack of

jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a). __________________________________________ Chari L. Kelly, Justice
