ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS 269th District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2014-66578
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On January 13, 2016, relator The Tarics Law Firm, P.C. filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.221 (West 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Dan Hinde, presiding judge of the 269th District Court of Harris County, to vacate his order signed on November 12, 2015, to the extent that it compels relator to participate in the arbitration.
To obtain mandamus relief, a relator must show both that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no adequate remedy by appeal. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Relator has not established that it does not have an adequate remedy by appeal. See In re Gulf Exploration, LLC, 289 S.W.3d 836, 842-43 (Tex. 2009) (orig. proceeding). We therefore deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Frost and Justices Donovan and Brown.
