Unreported / Non-Citable
Background
Kevin Abercrombie, Christie Abercrombie, 280 Sports, LLC, and Abercrombie Holdings, LLC filed a petition for a writ of mandamus in the Texas Second Court of Appeals. The original proceeding arose from Trial Court No. 352-331310-22 in the 352nd District Court of Tarrant County.
The appellate court considered the relators’ petition, the mandamus record, and the real party in interest’s response. The court had previously entered a stay on October 16, 2026.
The Court’s Holding
The court denied the petition for a writ of mandamus, stating only that it was of the opinion that relief should be denied. The memorandum opinion did not describe the underlying dispute or provide further reasoning.
The court also vacated its October 16, 2026 stay.
Key Takeaways
- The Texas Second Court of Appeals denied the requested mandamus relief.
- The court reached its decision after considering the petition, the record, and the real party in interest’s response.
- The court vacated the stay it had entered on October 16, 2026.
Why It Matters
The ruling ends the relators’ request for extraordinary relief in this original proceeding and removes the appellate stay. Because the brief memorandum opinion gives no factual or legal analysis, it offers no broader explanation of the court’s mandamus standards or its reason for denying relief.
