This is an application for writ of habeas corpus certified ‍‌​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍to this court by Honorable T. M. Gupton, Judge of the 23rd District Court of Brazoria County, together with certain facts ‍‌​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍ascertained at a hearing.

We shall treat the proceedings as an original application to this court, in view of Judge Gupton’s action ‍‌​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍in refusing to grant the writ of habeas corpus.

It has now been made known to this court that relator is ‍‌​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍no longer confined, and the question raised by his application has become moot. Ex parte Brown, 374 S.W. 2d 895.

The application for ‍‌​​​‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‍writ of habeas corpus is ordered dismissed.

Opinion approved by the court.
