IN RE JUSTIN WINGFIELD, Relator


Original Proceeding from the 199th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 199-30100-2019

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Burns, and Justices Partida-Kipness, and Nowell
Opinion by Chief Justice Burns

In this original proceeding, we consider father's petition for writ of mandamus regarding a temporary order orally rendered on August 22, 2019 by which the trial court modified father's right to determine the exclusive residence of a child. We conclude relator has not demonstrated entitlement to mandamus. See In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding) (Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relators to show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no adequate appellate remedy); TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a) (the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not entitled to the relief sought). Accordingly, we DENY relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
