Fourth Court of Appeals
                                       San Antonio, Texas
                                             December 5, 2017

                                           No. 04-17-00722-CR

                                        IN RE Benjamin ELIAS

                                    Original Mandamus Proceeding 1

                                                  ORDER

Sitting:         Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice
                 Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
                 Irene Rios, Justice

       Relator filed his petition for writ of mandamus on November 2, 2017, complaining that
Respondent has “fail[ed] to conduct a hearing regarding Relator’s [application for] writ of
habeas corpus.” On November 29, 2017, Respondent filed with this court a copy of a Notice of
Hearing setting Relator’s application for writ of habeas corpus to be heard on December 22,
2017, at 9:00 am. The trial court is granting Relator the relief he seeks through this proceeding.
Thus, this original mandamus proceeding is DISMISSED AS MOOT.
           It is so ORDERED on December 5, 2017.

                                                           _________________________________
                                                           Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice

       IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and affixed the seal of the said
court on this 5th day of December, 2017.

                                                           ___________________________________
