        Relators filed a petition for writ of mandamus asking us to compel the trial court to

relator’s request for emergency relief and issued an order staying all trial court proceedings. In
the order, we asked real party in interest, Benny Torres, to file a response to the petition by
January 12, 2018. Real party instead filed a copy of a notice of nonsuit filed in the trial court.
      We direct relator to file a response within 10 days of the date of this order addressing
whether this proceeding is moot.
       It is so ORDERED.
