      On October 17, 2022, relators Preferred Contractors and Daulton Spence filed
a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221;

venue and to issue an order severing claims against them and transferring those
claims to Chambers County.
      On November 16, 2022, relators filed an unopposed motion to dismiss the
petition. We hereby grant the motion and dismiss relators’ petition.

Panel consists of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Wise and Hassan.
