Heading: The petitioners' request for time to complete appraisals and other outstanding discovery.

Text: The plaintiffs contend that the issue whether to allow the petitioners additional time to complete their appraisals of the intervenor plaintiffs' properties is now moot as a result of this Court's stay of the proceedings below while the petitions for writ of mandamus were pending. The plaintiffs assert that the next applicable civil jury term is not until August 2002, and that an August trial date would provide the petitioners with sufficient time to complete the appraisals. The petitioners concede that the appraisals and other outstanding discovery could be completed by August 2002; in fact, the petitioners indicate that the appraisals can be completed in approximately two months. Therefore, based on the representations of the parties, we find that this issue is now moot.
