IN RE ENSCO INCORPORATED AND ENSCO OFFSHORE COMPANY, Relators
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
Panel consists of Kelly, Landau, and Farris Justices.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
Relators, Ensco Incorporated and Ensco Offshore Company, filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging the trial court's July 24, 2023 order denying their motion for summary judgment. In their mandamus petition, relators contended that the trial court abused its discretion by denying their motion for summary judgment regarding a purported Rule 11 agreement to settle the underlying lawsuit filed by real party in interest, Robert E. Buckley. Relators requested that the Court grant their mandamus petition, "command [the trial court] to vacate [its] [o]rder" denying their summary-judgment motion, and "command [the trial court] to enter an [o]rder granting [relators'] motion for summary judgment on [their] breach of contract claim."
The underlying case is Robert E. Buckley v. Ensco Incorporated and Ensco Offshore Company, Cause No. 2019-34430, in the 133rd District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Jaclanel McFarland presiding.
We deny relators' petition for writ of mandamus. Any pending motions are dismissed as moot.
