       Relator has advised the Court that the parties have settled the case underlying the petition

for writ of mandamus and moves to dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus. We grant the

motion and dismiss the petition. See In re Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc., 166 S.W.3d 732, 737

(Tex. 2005) (orig. proceeding) (“A case becomes moot if a controversy ceases to exist between

the parties at any stage of the legal proceedings.”); State Bar of Tex. v. Gomez, 891 S.W.2d 243,

245 (Tex. 1994) (orig. proceeding) (controversy is justiciable, if real controversy exists between

parties that will be actually resolved by judicial relief sought).
