MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-18-00371-CR
IN RE Juan Gabriel CISNEROS
Original Mandamus Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice
Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Delivered and Filed: July 18, 2018
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DISMISSED AS MOOT
On June 4, 2018, relator filed a pro se petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the
trial court’s refusal to rule on his application for writ of habeas corpus pursuant to Texas Code of
Criminal Procedure 11.08. On July 2, 2018, the respondent informed this court that (1) he
appointed an attorney to represent relator and (2) he scheduled a hearing to (a) determine the status
of the case, (b) determine how much time defense counsel needs to prepare for the case, and (c)
set the case for final hearing. Because relator has received the relief requested in his mandamus
petition, we dismiss the petition as moot. See In re Bonilla, 424 S.W.3d 528, 534 (Tex. Crim.
App. 2014) (orig. proceeding) (dismissing petition because relief sought had become moot).
