in Re Jeremy Paul Castillo

IN THE
TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
No. 10-19-00396-CR
IN RE JEREMY PAUL CASTILLO
Original Proceeding
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On November 6, 2019, the Clerk of this Court received and filed a petition for writ
of mandamus, dated October 29, 2019, from Relator Jeremy Paul Castillo. The petition
does not contain proof of service as required by the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5. However, to expedite this matter, the Court invokes Rule 2 to
suspend Rule 9.5.’s proof-of-service requirement. See id. R. 2. Furthermore, because the
respondent and real party in interest may access Castillo’s petition through the Court’s
website, we do not include a copy of the petition with this Memorandum Opinion.
In his petition, Castillo seeks a mandamus from this Court directing the trial court
to rule on his “Motion for Judgment Nunc Pro Tunc” that was filed in June 2019. Castillo
notes that the motion was filed in trial court numbers 37297CR, 37298CR, and 41522CR.
On November 25, 2019, Castillo filed a pleading entitled “Petition for Appeal From
the Trial Courts Ruling for Judgment Nunc Pro Tunc.” The matter was filed as a direct
appeal and assigned Case Number 10-19-00420-CR. Castillo notes in this most recent
filing that he is appealing the trial court’s denial of his Motion for Judgment Nunc Pro
Tunc filed in trial court numbers 37297CR, 37298CR, and 41522CR. As the trial court has
ruled on the motion that is the basis for his mandamus petition, the relief Castillo seeks
is now moot.
Accordingly, the petition for mandamus filed by Jeremy Paul Castillo is dismissed.
