Unreported / Non-Citable
Background
Reece Michael Jacobs filed a petition for a writ of mandamus in the Texas Second Court of Appeals. The original proceeding arose from Trial Court No. 2013-40293-362 in the 362nd District Court of Denton County, Texas.
The real party in interest filed a response to Jacobs’s petition. The court’s memorandum opinion does not identify the underlying dispute, the order or conduct challenged, or the specific relief Jacobs requested.
The Court’s Holding
The court denied Jacobs’s petition for a writ of mandamus. It stated that, after considering the petition and the real party in interest’s response, it was of the opinion that relief should be denied.
The per curiam memorandum opinion provides no further analysis and does not identify a particular element of the mandamus standard that Jacobs failed to establish.
Key Takeaways
- The Texas Second Court of Appeals denied Jacobs’s petition for mandamus relief.
- The court considered both the petition and the real party in interest’s response.
- The memorandum opinion does not disclose the underlying facts or explain the basis for denying relief.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the challenged trial-court action undisturbed and provides no substantive reasoning for use in other cases. Its practical significance is therefore principally limited to the parties and the underlying Denton County proceeding.
