Appeal Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed June 1, 2023.

                                      In The

                     Fourteenth Court of Appeals

                               NO. 14-21-00344-CV

               CHRISTOPHER DANIEL CORNAY, Appellant

                                         V.

                  LAUREN ELIZABETH CORNAY, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 280th District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                      Trial Court Cause No. 2021-29054

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      This is an appeal from a protective order signed May 26, 2021. On March
22, 2022, this court granted the parties’ motion to abate the appeal and permit
proceedings in the trial court to effectuate the parties’ agreement, particularly to
have the trial court grant a joint motion to modify the protective order. See Tex. R.
App. P. 42.1(a)(2)(C). The appeal was subsequently reinstated in the absence of
any sign that the parties had taken steps to effectuate their agreement. However,
on April 25, 2023, the trial court clerk filed a supplemental clerk’s record that
included an amended protective order signed February 19, 2023. The amended
protective order recites a connection with the trial court’s consideration of the
parties’ agreement to modify the original protective order, and moreover, the
amended protective order is signed by both parties as well as their respective
counsel’s to reflect their approval and consent as to both the form and substance of
the amended protective order.

      As the parties had not since filed any motion to dismiss the appeal, on April
26, 2023, notification was transmitted to the parties of this court’s intention to
dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction due to mootness unless any
demonstrated this court has jurisdiction over this appeal on or before May 8, 2023.
See Tex. R. App. P. 4.1(a), 42.3(a). No party has filed a response.

      Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.

                                  PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Jewell, Zimmerer, and Hassan.
