Delivered and Filed: March 18, 2015

DISMISSED

           Relator State Farm Fire & Casualty Company filed a petition for a writ of mandamus,

complaining of a June 12, 2014, order denying its plea to the jurisdiction. Relator sought a writ of

mandamus directing the trial judge to dismiss the real party in interest’s suit against it for lack of

subject matter jurisdiction.     The trial court’s order was signed by the Honorable Barbara

Nellermoe, who was then the judge of the 45th Judicial District Court of Bexar County, Texas.

On January 27, 2015, we ordered that the Honorable Stephani Walsh be substituted as the

respondent in this proceeding, and we abated the proceedings to allow Judge Walsh to reconsider

the decision. See TEX. R. APP. P. 7.2.
