COURT OF APPEALS EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS EL PASO, TEXAS § IN RE: TONY MARTINEZ, M.D. § No. 08-08-00263-CV § AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING § IN MANDAMUS Relator. § § MEMORANDUM OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS Relator, Tony Martinez, M.D., asks this Court to issue a writ of mandamus against the Honorable Javier Alvarez, Judge of the County Court at Law No. 3 of El Paso County, in order to compel Judge Alvarez to enter judgment on the jury s verdict. In order to be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator must meet two requirements. First, the relator must show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. In re Prudential Insurance Company of America, 148 S.W.3d 124, 135 (Tex. 2004). Second, the relator must demonstrate he has no adequate remedy by appeal. Id. at 135-36. Since Relator filed his mandamus petition, the trial court has entered judgment. Accordingly, we dismiss this mandamus proceeding as moot. KENNETH R. CARR, Justice October 23, 2008 Before Chew, C.J., McClure, and Carr, JJ.
