Original Proceeding from the 162nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DC-16-03141
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Lang-Miers, Myers, and Boatright
Opinion by Justice Lang-Miers
Before the Court is relator's petition for writ of mandamus in which he complains of a November 3, 2017 sanctions order and a November 22, 2017 order denying his motion to disqualify and recuse the trial judge. To be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Based on the record before us, we conclude relator has not shown he is entitled to the relief requested. Accordingly, we deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a) (the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not entitled to the relief sought).
