IN RE STATE FARM LLOYDS,
Relator
On Appeal from the 212th District Court
Galveston County, Texas
Trial Court Case No. 10-CV-2741
MEMORANDUM OPINION
In this original proceeding, Relator State Farm Lloyds seeks relief from a
trial court order that (1) compels discovery, and (2) strikes evidence offered in
support of State Farm’s objection to Real-Party-In-Interest’s discovery request.
State Farm has since notified the Court that the underlying case has been
transferred to an MDL pretrial court, rendering the discovery order at issue in this
original proceeding moot. We do not have jurisdiction over moot orders. E.g.,
FDIC v. Nueces Cnty., 886 S.W.2d 766, 767 (Tex. 1997); see also In re Becker,
No. 01-10-00917-CV, 2011 WL 1588520, at *1 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.]
April 21, 2011, orig. proceeding) (mem. op.) (dismissing mandamus proceedings
as moot because the “subject orders are not longer in effect”).
We dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Higley and Brown.
