IN RE YORKSHIRE WEST CAPITAL INC., Relator


Original Proceeding from the 116th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-94-03613

Before Justices Pedersen, III, Nowell, and Miskel

MEMORANDUM OPINION

BILL PEDERSEN, III JUSTICE

In its December 1, 2023 petition for writ of mandamus, relator challenges a trial court's post-judgment order vacating a previously issued turnover order, contending it is void for having been issued after the trial court's plenary power expired.

Entitlement to mandamus relief requires a relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that the relator lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). A trial court abuses its discretion by entering a void order, and the relator need not establish lack of an adequate appellate remedy to obtain mandamus relief. In re Briseno, No. 05-22-01174-CV, 2022 WL 17663634, at *1 (Tex. App.- Dallas Dec. 14, 2022, orig. proceeding) (mem. op.). After reviewing the petition, the response, the reply, and the record before us, we conclude that relator has failed to demonstrate entitlement to mandamus relief.

Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
