TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-22-00394-CV
In re Irwin Pentland
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator has filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the trial court’s
failure to hear or consider several motions he filed in an underlying suit affecting the parent-
child relationship. This Court subsequently received a supplemental record demonstrating the
trial court has set the motions for virtual or telephonic hearing on Friday, September 16, 2022
at 8:30 a.m. See In re Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc., 166 S.W.3d 732, 737 (Tex. 2005) (orig.
proceeding) (“A case becomes moot if a controversy ceases to exist between the parties at any
stage of the legal proceedings ....”). Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus
as moot.
