IN RE SWEET MELISSA'S WE, LTD, LAPT, INC., AND LEAWOOD PLAZA APARTMENTS, Relators
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS
434th Judicial District Court Fort Bend County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 15-DCV-223678
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On April 16, 2018, relators Sweet Melissa's WE, Ltd, LAPT, Inc., and Leawood Plaza Apartments filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221 (West Supp. 2017); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable James H. Shoemake, presiding judge of the 434th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, to vacate his March 16, 2018 order, which requires relators to produce to the court in camera a copy of any potential applicable insurance policy.
To obtain mandamus relief, a relator must show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Relators have not shown that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. We therefore deny relators' petition for writ of mandamus.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Busby, Brown, and Jewell.
