* ''In re Tex. House of Representatives'', 702 S.W.3d 330,
334 (Tex. 2024)


* ''Morath v. Lewis'', 601 S.W.3d 785, [https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=5611785657430184896#p789 789] (Tex. 2020) (citation omitted) ("We do not have power to decide moot cases, whether they 'involve a matter of public concern' or not. Indeed, the need for courts to mind their jurisdictional bounds is perhaps at its greatest in cases involving questions of public importance, where the potential for undue interference with the other two branches of government is most acute. If courts were empowered to ignore the usual limits on their jurisdiction, such as mootness, when matters of public concern are at stake, then we would no longer have a judiciary with limited power to decide genuine cases and controversies.")
