IN RE JAMES LATIMER, Relator


Original Proceeding from the 219th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 296-51478-2009

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices O'Neill, Lang, and Brown
Opinion by Justice Brown

Relator filed this petition for writ of mandamus contending that the trial court abused its discretion in denying his motion to enforce the visitation provisions in the final order in this suit affecting the parent child relationship. The facts are well-known to the parties so we do not recount them here. 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). Based on the record before us, we conclude relator has not shown that the trial court has abused its discretion. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-40 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding).

Accordingly, we DENY relator's petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
