     IN RE MARK EVENSON, INDIVIDUALLY, AND AS TRUSTEE
  OF THE A. EDWARD EVENSON FAMILY TRUST AND BARBARA G.
             EVENSON FAMILY LIVING TRUST, Relator

            Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator, Mark Evenson, Individually and as Trustee of the A. Edward

Evenson Family Trust and Barbara G. Evenson Family Living Trust, has filed a

petition for a writ of mandamus, challenging a temporary restraining order that the
trial court signed on April 29, 2016.1 The order expired by its own terms on May

13, 2016. Accordingly, the petition is moot. See In re Gregory, No. 04-16-00277-

CV, 2016 WL 3312964, at *1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio June 15, 2016, orig.

proceeding) (mem. op.) (citing Valley Baptist Med. Ctr. v. Gonzalez, 33 S.W.3d 821,

822 (Tex. 2000)).

        We dismiss the petition and dismiss as moot relator’s emergency motion to

stay.

                                      PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Jennings and Lloyd.
