DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

           The State of Texas, on behalf of the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office, Jonathan

Watkins, and Thomas Velez, appeals the trial court’s June 2, 2014 and September 16, 2014, orders

granting sanctions. On December 31, 2014, this court issued an opinion and order in a related

mandamus proceeding in which we held the challenged orders are void and directed the trial court
                                                                                            04-14-00635-CV


to vacate the orders. 1 On January 12, 2015, the trial court signed an order vacating the orders that

are the subject of this appeal.

        On January 15, 2015, we gave the parties an opportunity to show why this appeal should

not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction because it is moot. We ordered the parties’ responses be

filed by January 26, 2015. No response has been filed. We therefore dismiss this appeal for lack

of jurisdiction.
