MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
On August 25, 2023, relator Waukesha-Pearce Industries, LLC filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging the trial court's order granting net worth discovery. On August 28, 2023, the same day that our Court denied relator's motion for an emergency stay, relator filed a mandamus petition with the Texas Supreme Court challenging the trial court's discovery order. See In re Waukesha-Pearce Industries, LLC, Case No. 23-0700-CV. After briefing by the parties, the Texas Supreme Court denied relator's mandamus petition on October 27, 2023. We now deny the mandamus petition pending in our Court.
The underlying case is Martin James Zeilinger, Individually and as Personal Representative of the Estate of Elizabeth Zeilinger, deceased; Bernice Nanette Odell; Blake Raymond Zeilinger; Randall Swenson, Individually and as Personal Representative of the Estate of Trey Swenson, deceased; Melissa Swenson; Makayla Hernandez; and Susan Wentz v. Waukesha-Pearce Industries LLC and Jacob Allen Svadlenak, cause number 2022-04906, pending in the 127th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Ravi K. Sandill presiding.
