IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

TYLER, TEXAS

IN RE: ALLSTATE

INSURANCE COMPANY, ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

RELATOR

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On August 15, 2007, this court delivered an opinion conditionally granting the petition for writ of mandamus filed by Allstate Insurance Company as relator. That opinion ordered Respondent to vacate his order signed on March 14, 2007 denying Allstate s motion to sever and abate and its motion to reconsider and issue an order granting the motion to sever and abate. Subsequently, on August 22, 2007, Respondent signed an order complying with this court s order and opinion of August 15, 2007.

All issues attendant to this original proceeding having been disposed of, this mandamus proceeding has now been rendered moot; therefore, the writ need not issue. Accordingly, this original proceeding is dismissed.
