                                            PER CURIAM
         AAA Texas County Mutual Insurance Company filed this original mandamus proceeding
complaining of the trial court’s orders denying its motion to sever and abate and compelling
AAA to respond to discovery relating to Thomas Jackson’s extracontractual claims.           On
August 18, 2016, this Court conditionally granted AAA’s petition and directed Respondent to
vacate the complained-of orders.             By orders issued on August 19 and August 23, 2016,
Respondent has complied with this Court’s opinion and order, rendering this proceeding moot.
Accordingly, we dismiss AAA’s petition for writ of mandamus as moot.
Opinion delivered August 31, 2016.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
