VITOL, INC., Appellant

V.

LETICIA B. LOYA, Appellee

On Appeal from the 257th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2008-24514

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant Vitol, Inc. filed a notice of an accelerated appeal from a temporary injunction signed January 15, 2010. A related petition for writ of mandamus was also filed and assigned to this court under our number 14-10-00049-CV. On January 28, 2010, this court conditionally granted the writ of mandamus.

The Harris County District Clerk’s office did not assign this appeal to this court until March 5, 2010. Because it appears that the issues in the interlocutory appeal have been rendered moot, on March 8, 2010, notification was transmitted to the parties of this court’s intention to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction unless any party filed a response demonstrating grounds for continuing the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). On March 16, 2010, appellant Vitol, Inc. filed a response agreeing that the appeal is moot and stating that it does not oppose dismissal.

Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Anderson and Christopher.
