PER CURIAM.

At issue in this case is whether the trial court's denial of a motion for sanctions under former article 4590i of the Medical Liability Insurance Improvement Act (MLIIA) is appealable following a plaintiff's nonsuit.1 The court of appeals dismissed the case for lack of jurisdiction, concluding that the trial court's subsequent entry of the plaintiff's nonsuit rendered moot the interlocutory order denying the motion.
