IN RE OWEN J. MERRELL AND JEANNA EAST, Relators


Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

Panel consists of Justices Kelly, Countiss, and Rivas-Molloy.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

Relators Owen J. Merrell and Jeanna East filed a petition for writ of mandamus in response to the Honorable Dedra Davis's overruling of their "Agreed Objection to Trial Proceeding as Planned." The next day, Relators filed a corresponding "Emergency Motion to Stay Trial Scheduled to Begin July 13, 2022."

The underlying case is Jeanna East v. Owen J. Merrell, Cause No. 2019-21343, pending in the 270th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Dedra Davis presiding.

We deny the petition for writ of mandamus. Tex.R.App.P. 52.8(a). Relators' Emergency Motion to Stay Trial Scheduled to Begin July 13, 2022 is denied. Any other pending motions are denied as moot.

Justice Kelly would have granted the Emergency Motion to Stay.
