In re Consuelo Kight and Andrew Ryan Kight a/k/a Ryan


80th District Court of Harris County, Trial court case number: 2020-15441

ORDER

AMPARO GUERRA, J.

On August 10, 2021, relators, Consuelo Kight and Andrew Ryan Kight, also known as Ryan Kight, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus "challenging the trial court's decision to retain jurisdiction over this case despite being deprived of subject-matter jurisdiction by the ecclesiastical abstention doctrine."

In connection with its petition for writ of mandamus, relators also filed a "Motion to Stay," requesting that this Court stay the August 16, 2021 trial setting pending resolution of this mandamus proceeding. Relators' motion to stay is granted. The August 16, 2021 trial setting stayed. This stay is effective until disposition of relators' petition for writ of mandamus or further order of this Court.

The Court further requests a response to the petition for writ of mandamus from real party in interest, Kenneth Smith, as Trustee of Park Temple Baptist Church. The response, if any, must be filed with this Court within fifteen days of the date of this order.

It is so ORDERED.
