                        On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.


                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
  Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Benavides
                  Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

       By petition for writ of mandamus and appeal, Windsor Nursing Center Partners of

Corpus Christi, Ltd., d/b/a Corpus Christi Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Regency

Nursing and Rehabilitation Centers, Inc., Windsor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center,

Inc., Windsor Corpus Christi Nursing Center, Inc, Heber Lacerda, and Donald Kivowitz,

(hereinafter collectively referred to as “Windsor”) contended that the trial court abused its

discretion in denying their motion to compel arbitration.        By memorandum opinion

issued on June 7, 2011, we affirmed the trial court’s order in appellate cause number

13-09-00424-CV and denied the petition for writ of mandamus in appellate cause

number 13-09-00452-CV.       See Windsor Nursing Ctr. v. Yesian, Nos. 13-09-00424-CV

& 13-09-00452-CV, 2011 Tex. App. LEXIS 4361, at *1 (Tex. App.—Corpus Christi June

7, 2011, no pet.) (combined appeal & orig. proceeding).          Windsor has now filed a

“Motion for Reconsideration Based on Arbitration Stipulation.” According to the motion,

the parties have entered a stipulation agreeing to arbitration. Windsor thus requests

that we withdraw our opinion and decision and enter an order staying trial court
                                             2
proceedings pending arbitration.      More than ten days have passed since Windsor filed

this motion, and appellees and real parties in interest have not filed a response to the

motion.   See TEX. R. APP. P. 10.3.

       The Court, having examined and fully considered Windsor’s motion, is of the

opinion that it should be granted in part and denied in part.     See id. R. 42.1(a)(1). The

motion is granted insofar as we withdraw our previous opinion in these causes and the

judgment in appellate cause number 13-09-00424-CV.              All other relief sought in the

motion is denied.      Specifically, any request for stay of the trial court proceedings

pending arbitration should be addressed to the trial court.

       Moreover, given that the parties have stipulated to arbitration, it appears that

these proceedings have been rendered moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal and

original proceeding.    See In re Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc., 166 S.W.3d 732, 737 (Tex.

2005) (holding that a “case becomes moot if a controversy ceases to exist between the

parties at any stage of the legal proceedings”); State Bar of Texas v. Gomez, 891

S.W.2d 243, 245 (Tex. 1994) (stating that, for a controversy to be justiciable, there must

be a real controversy between the parties that will be actually resolved by the judicial

relief sought).   Costs of the appeal are assessed against appellants.       See TEX. R. APP.

P. 42.1(d).

       It is so ORDERED.

                                                                         PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
2nd day of February, 2012.
