                                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                            PER CURIAM
         Volt Power, LLC filed this original proceeding to challenge Respondent’s order granting
a motion to compel production filed by Real Party in Interest, Quandel Ray Morgan. 1 On April
5, 2023, this Court conditionally granted the petition in part and directed Respondent to vacate
only that portion of his January 3, 2023, order compelling responses to Requests 83, 85, and 91
from Morgan’s first request for production, and in its stead, to issue an order imposing limits on
these requests and compelling Volt to respond to the production requests as limited. We denied
Volt’s petition in all other respects. By an order signed on April 13, Respondent complied with
this Court’s opinion and order, rendering this proceeding moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the
petition for writ of mandamus as moot.
Opinion delivered April 20, 2023.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.

         1
           Respondent is the Honorable Dean Fowler, Judge of the 115th District Court in Upshur County, Texas. In
addition to Morgan, Jared Shane Henderson and Betty Holcomb are the Real Parties in Interest.
