07/20/2004Order/ProceduralFiled Order/Show Cause. On April 29, 2004, this court granted petitioners' motion to stay execution of the contempt order and directed an answer from the real parties in interest. On May 3, 2004, petitioners filed a withdrawal of their emergency stay motion because they had already paid the $5,000 in sanctions ordered by the district court. On June 2, 2004, the real parties in interest filed an answer to the writ petition. It has been over two months since petitioners filed the withdrawal of their emergency stay motion, and petitioners have not attempted to rescind that withdrawal. Therefore, we vacate that portion of our April 29, 2004 order staying execution of the contempt order. As petitioners have tendered the contempt sanction, it appears that the writ petition in Docket Number 42897 may be moot. Petitioners shall have 30 days from the date of this order within which to show cause why this writ petition should not be dismissed as moot. 04-13133
