NUMBER 13-26-00229-CV

COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

IN RE 7-ELEVEN, INC. D/B/A STRIPES
AND SANDRA URIBE

ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Silva, Peña, and Cron
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Silva1

Relators 7-Eleven, Inc. d/b/a Stripes and Sandra Uribe filed a petition for writ of

mandamus asserting that the trial court abused its discretion by vacating previously

rendered summary judgments. However, relators have now advised this Court that “this

matter has been completely settled” and their petition for writ of mandamus should be

1 See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(d) (“When denying relief, the court may hand down an opinion but is not

required to do so. When granting relief, the court must hand down an opinion as in any other case.”); id. R.
47.1 (“The court of appeals must hand down a written opinion that is as brief as practicable but that
addresses every issue raised and necessary to final disposition of the appeal.”); id. R. 47.4 (explaining the
distinction between opinions and memorandum opinions).
dismissed.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus

and the foregoing events, is of the opinion that this original proceeding has been rendered

moot. See In re Cont. Freighters, Inc., 646 S.W.3d 810, 813 (Tex. 2022) (orig. proceeding)

(per curiam); Heckman v. Williamson County, 369 S.W.3d 137, 162 (Tex. 2012); In re

Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc., 166 S.W.3d 732, 737 (Tex. 2005) (orig. proceeding).

Accordingly, we dismiss this petition for writ of mandamus as moot.
