                 IN RE KATHERINE LOUSIE KING, Relator

            Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator, Katherine Louise King, has filed a motion to dismiss her petition for

writ of mandamus. Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus asserted that the trial

court had failed to rule on her challenge to its subject-matter jurisdiction while

“entertain[ing] and decid[ing] substantive matters in the case, despite repeated

requests from Relator for a ruling on her amended plea to the jurisdiction.” 1

1
      The underlying case is In the Matter of Marriage of Katherine Louise King and
      Christopher Michael King and In the Interest of R.A.K., a Child, No. 2011-23444,
Relator states in her motion to dismiss that she has now received a written order

from the trial court denying her plea to the jurisdiction.

      Accordingly, we grant Relator’s motion and dismiss her petition for writ of

mandamus.

                                      PER CURIAM
