IN THE INTEREST OF E.H.,

A MINOR CHILD

------------

FROM THE 323RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION^{^[1]}

Appellant M.J. appeals from the trial court=s order awarding permanent managing conservatorship of her then seventeen-year-old son E.H. to the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. The trial court did not order M.J. to pay child support. Because E.H.=s eighteenth birthday was on May 29, 2008, there is no longer any live dispute.^{^[2]}

We therefore dismiss this appeal as moot.^{^[3]}
