Original Mandamus Proceeding
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This mandamus proceeding arises from the county court’s order transferring
a probate case to the 259th District Court. The parties have filed a Joint Motion for
Voluntary Dismissal in this court because they have reached a settlement agreement
and resolved the disputes below. In the motion, the parties request that we lift the
stay order previously issued in this cause and dismiss the mandamus proceeding.
We grant the parties’ joint motion, and we dismiss this mandamus proceeding.
The stay previously issued in this cause is dissolved. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b).

of His Response is dismissed as moot.
