Background

Robert Edward Davis filed an original proceeding in the Texas Court of Appeals for the Second District arising from Trial Court No. 233-704630-21 in Tarrant County’s 233rd District Court.

Davis sought a writ of mandamus and moved for temporary relief under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52.10. The brief memorandum opinion does not describe the underlying dispute, the challenged trial-court action, or Davis’s arguments.

The Court’s Holding

The court denied Davis’s petition for a writ of mandamus. It stated only that it had considered the petition and was of the opinion that relief should be denied.

The court also denied Davis’s motion for temporary relief under Rule 52.10. The per curiam memorandum opinion offered no further reasoning and did not identify separate grounds for either denial.

Key Takeaways

  • The court denied the requested writ of mandamus.
  • The court also denied the accompanying motion for temporary relief.
  • The memorandum opinion did not explain the underlying controversy or provide substantive reasoning for the denials.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the relator without either extraordinary mandamus relief or interim relief from the appellate court in this proceeding. Because the opinion contains no factual discussion or legal analysis, its significance is confined largely to the disposition of this particular petition and motion.
