                                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                            PER CURIAM
         B.R. filed this original proceeding to challenge Respondent’s actions in a suit affecting
the parent child relationship. 1 On January 24, 2024, this Court conditionally granted the petition
and directed Respondent to (1) vacate his June 20, 2023, temporary orders and to dismiss the
pleadings filed by Real Party in Interest J.P. for lack of standing, and (2) vacate his order
denying B.R.’s application for writ of habeas corpus (insofar as such an order exists) and, in its
stead, order that the child, B.J.D., be immediately returned to B.R.’s possession. By an order
signed on January 26, Respondent complied with this Court’s opinion and order, rendering this
proceeding moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the petition for writ of mandamus as moot.

Opinion delivered February 7, 2024.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.

             Respondent is the Honorable Jeffrey B. Doran, Judge of the County Court at Law in Anderson County,
Texas.
