V.



SAN DIEGO NATIONAL BANK	APPELLEE

FROM THE 153RD DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION
(footnote: 1) AND JUDGMENT
 



------------

In March 2008, the trial court awarded Appellee San Diego National Bank a judgment against Appellants David R. Huetten and Peggy Huetten as well as Cavender Gardens Partners, LLC.  No one appealed from this judgment.  On November 19, 2008, the trial court granted Appellee’s application for turnover, charging order, and injunctive relief against Appellants.  Appellants timely appealed but did not supersede the order.
(footnote: 2)  Appellee obtained a writ of execution and submitted it to the Tarrant County Constable.  The constable levied upon the property named in the turnover order and took possession of it.  He provided a notice of sale and later sold the property at a public auction to the highest secured bidder, Appellee.

Appellee has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal as moot, arguing that the sale of the property renders this appeal moot.  Appellants’ response does not provide meritorious grounds for continuing the appeal.  Accordingly, because the sale of the property renders this appeal moot,
(footnote: 3) we grant Appellee’s motion and dismiss this appeal as moot.
