Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Beth Watkins, Justice
Delivered and Filed: March 8, 2023
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED AS MOOT
On February 13, 2023, relator Detrick Deroven filed a petition for writ of mandamus
complaining of the trial court’s failure to rule on three motions he filed pro se. 2 The trial court
ruled on relator’s motions on February 28, 2023. Because relator has obtained the requested relief,
his petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot. See In re Bonilla, 424 S.W.3d 528, 534
(Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (orig. proceeding).
