IN RE DAVID MCKEAND, Relator
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS 505th District Court Fort Bend, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 19-DCV-259360
Panel consists of Justices Bourliot, Hassan, and Poissant.
ORDER
PER CURIAM.
On January 19, 2024, relator David McKeand filed a petition for writ of mandamus and motion for temporary relief in this Court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this Court to compel the Honorable Kalie Morgan, presiding judge of the 505th District Court of Fort Bend County, to vacate the trial court's July 25, 2023 order on motion for sanctions against attorney David McKeand.
It appears from the facts stated in the petition and motion that relator's request for relief requires further consideration and that relator will be prejudiced unless immediate temporary relief is granted. We therefore GRANT relator's motion for temporary relief and issue the following order:
We ORDER the trial court's July 25, 2023, order on motions for sanctions against attorney David McKeand in trial court cause number 19-DCV-259360, In the Interest of Zachary Lansdown, Cayden Lansdown and Sterling Lansdown, STAYED until a final decision by this Court on relator's petition for writ of mandamus, or until further order of this Court.
In addition, the Court requests Real Party in Interest Dan Lansdown to file a response to the petition for writ of mandamus on or before March 1, 2024. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.4.
