IN RE BOBBY DUNCAN, Relator


Original Proceeding from the 296th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 296-53157-2014

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Bridges, and Justice Stoddart
Opinion by Chief Justice Wright

Relator filed this petition for writ of mandamus is this divorce proceeding, which includes a suit affecting the parent-child relationship, complaining of various decisions of the trial court, many of which have been considered in relator's prior petitions for writs of mandamus. See In re Duncan, No. 05-15-00890-CV, 2015 WL 4572655, at *1 (Tex. App.—Dallas July 30, 2015, orig. proceeding); In re Duncan, 05-15-00767-CV, 2015 WL 3947050, at *2 (Tex. App.—Dallas June 29, 2015, orig. proceeding). Ordinarily, to obtain 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). Having carefully reviewed the petition and record in support of the petition, we conclude relator has failed to establish a right to relief.

We deny the petition for writ of mandamus. 151318F.P05
