IN RE:
LIVING CENTERS OF TEXAS, INC., AND MARINER
POST-ACUTE NETWORK, INC., N/K/A, MARINER HEALTH CARE, INC.

Original Mandamus Proceeding

 

 

Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

 

MEMORANDUM OPINION

 

On August 22, 2007, relators Living Centers of Texas, Inc., and Mariner Post-Acute Network, Inc., n/k/a, Mariner Health Care, Inc., filed a petition for writ of mandamus with this Court seeking temporary emergency relief regarding orders signed by the Fourth Judicial District Court in a medical malpractice lawsuit. The mandamus proceedings have since been stayed by agreement of the relators and the real parties in interest. On November 14, 2007, the relators filed a motion to dismiss their petition for writ of mandamus; the parties have apparently entered into a settlement agreement regarding the underlying medical malpractice litigation.

We grant the relators' motion to dismiss their petition for writ of mandamus.

 

Josh R. Morriss, III

Chief Justice
