                                 ORDER DISMISSING WRIT PETITION
                            This is an original petition for writ of mandamus or
                prohibition challenging a justice court's diversionary adjudication of
                misdemeanor DUI offenses using a nonstatutory veteran's court.
                            On December 16, 2015, this court ordered real party in
                interest to file an answer to the petition. Real party in interest has filed a
                motion to reconsider the order directing answer, indicating that the
                petition is moot as concerns real party in interest. Petitioner filed a
                joinder to the motion, indicating that the entire issue is moot and
                requesting that the petition be dismissed.
                            Cause appearing, we grant real party in interest's motion for
                reconsideration and we vacate our December 16, 2015, order directing an

                answer to the writ petition. Further, as it appears the issue raised in this
                writ petition has been rendered moot, we
                            ORDER this writ petition DISMISSED.
