   Judge Terri F. Love

RThe instant appeal came before this Court after the trial court partially granted a petition for writ of mandamus, seeking production of public records. The trial court ordered Leon A. Cannizzaro, Jr., in his official capacity as Orleans Parish District Attorney, (“District Attorney”), to produce the requested public records Ma-jorie Esman (“Ms. Esman”) requested; however, the trial court limited the request to a five-year time frame. During the pen-dency of the instant appeal, Ms. Esman filed in the trial court a motion to dismiss her petition for a writ of mandamus. The trial court signed the order granting the motion to dismiss on December 12, 2017. Considering the trial court’s granting of the motion to dismiss, the present appeal before this Court is now moot. Therefore, on this Court’s own motion, we dismiss the present appeal as moot.

DISMISSED AS MOOT
