               Relator has filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking an order from this Court

compelling the trial court to grant his motion for Chapter 64 post-conviction DNA testing . See Tex.

Code Crim. Proc. art. 64.03. Relator’s petition also seeks to compel the district attorney’s office to

DNA testing. The petition for writ of mandamus is dismissed as moot.
