Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
John Cooper and Carrie Boe (Petitioners) seek a writ of mandamus to vacate a district court's order remanding a case to state court. In subsequent briefing to the court, however, the Petitioners have suggested that their petition has been mooted by the filing of an amended complaint in state court. The Petitioners claim that they will file a new notice of removal as a result of this pleading. Specifically, the Petitioners "respectfully suggest their Petition for Writ of Mandamus is moot, but reserve the right to re-file same should the District Court remand the . claims pending in the underlying litigation in the future prior to a proper adjudication." We read this representation as a request by the Petitioners to withdraw the instant petition, and we dismiss the petition on that basis. We do not address at this time whether this court otherwise lacks jurisdiction to review the district court's remand order.
DISMISSED.
Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.

Co., 8 F.3d 219, 221 (5th Cir.1993) ("We may review a remand order on petition for writ of mandamus . provided that it was entered on grounds not authorized by [28 U.S.C.] § 1447(c).").
