Opinion issued September 23, 2026 In The Court of Appeals For The First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-26-00894-CV ——————————— CONISHA BUTLER AND JAHMON S. BUTLER, Appellants V. THEDA BUTLER, Appellee On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 2 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1283493 MEMORANDUM OPINION In this forcible detainer action, appellants Conisha Butler and Jahmon S. Butler, proceeding pro se, filed a notice of appeal from the trial court’s Final Judgment. On September 9, 2026, appellants filed a motion to “dismiss case as moot” asserting that they “have vacated the premises and no longer seek present possession,” and requesting that “the Court vacate the underlying . . . judgment and dismiss the case as moot.” Appellant further requested “prompt issuance of the Court’s mandate or other appropriate instructions so that the trial court may address release of the $800 held in its registry.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 18.1(c) (authorizing court to issue mandate early “if the parties so agree, or for good cause on the motion of a party”). No other party has filed a notice of appeal, and no opinion has issued. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1), (c). Accordingly, we grant the motion, dismiss the appeal, vacate the trial court’s judgment of possession, and dismiss the case as moot. See Marshall v. Hous. Auth. of San Antonio, 198 S.W.3d 782, 785 (Tex. 2006) (holding that when appeal of forcible detainer action becomes moot, proper course is to dismiss appeal and vacate lower court’s judgment of possession)). See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.1(a)(1), 43.2(e), (f). We dismiss any other pending motions as moot. We direct the Clerk of this Court to issue the mandate immediately. See TEX. R. APP. P. 18.1(c). PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Caughey, Morgan, and Dokupil. 2
