MEMORANDUM OPINION(1)
------------
Both Texas Farmers Insurance Company and
State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company filed motions for new trial, and
all three parties filed notices of appeal from the trial court's February 26,
2003 judgment. The trial court subsequently granted Texas Farmers Insurance
Company's motion for new trial on June 6, 2003, while it still had plenary
jurisdiction over the case. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 329b(c), (e).
On June 12, 2003, we informed the parties
that it appeared the trial court's granting of the motion for new trial rendered
this appeal moot, and the appeal would be dismissed as moot unless any party
desiring to continue the appeal filed a response showing grounds for continuing
the appeal. No response was filed.
Therefore, we dismiss the appeal as moot
on our own motion.
