Moore presiding. In the first proceeding, cause number 01-16-00695-CV, Davis filed an emergency motion requesting the stay of a hearing and all underlying proceedings pending our determination of his “soon-to-be-filed petition for writ of mandamus.” Our court denied the motion. Davis did not subsequently file a petition. Accordingly, we dismiss the first original proceeding for want of prosecution. In a subsequent proceeding, cause number 01-16-00731-CV, Davis filed a second request for an emergency stay for another soon-to-be-filed petition. Our court denied the stay. Davis later filed his petition. Having reviewed the petition for a writ of mandamus, we deny mandamus relief. PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Bland, Massengale, and Lloyd. 2
