                        MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relators, The City of Meadows Place, Texas, and Gary Stewart, Chief of

Police, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus and a writ of prohibition challenging

an “Order to Register Defendant as Sex Offender in The City of Meadows Place,
Texas” and oral rulings regarding the city’s Ordinance 2006-21.1 After relators filed

their petition, the trial court signed an order vacating the order to register and any

findings regarding the ordinance. Relators have filed an unopposed motion to

dismiss the petition as moot.

      Accordingly, we grant the motion and dismiss the petition for a writ of

mandamus and a writ of prohibition as moot. All pending motions also are dismissed

as moot.
