MEMORANDUM OPINION
On November 21, 2003, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See TEX. GOV'T. CODE ANN. § 22.221 (Vernon Supp. 2003); see also TEX. R. APP. P. 52. In the petition, relator asserts the trial court abused its discretion in denying its motion to dismiss for failure to provide adequate expert reports pursuant to article 4590i, section 13.01, the Medical Liability and Insurance Improvement Act.
TEX. REV. CIV. STAT. ANN. Art. 4590i, § 13.01 ( repealed by Act eff. Sept. 1, 2003, 78th Leg. R.S., ch. 204, § 10.09, 2003 Tex. Sess. Law Serv. 884). Actions filed before the effective date of the new law are governed by the law in effect immediately before the change in law made. See Act eff. Sept. 1, 2003, 78th Leg. R.S., ch. 204, § 23.02, 2003 Tex. Sess. Law Serv. 899.
Relator has not established the trial court abused its discretion. Moreover, there is an adequate remedy at law. We deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus.
