DENY; and Opinion Filed August 31, 2017. S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-17-00476-CV IN RE CHIKE IGWE, Relator Original Proceeding from the 303rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-12-06612 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Bridges, Fillmore, and Schenck Opinion by Justice Schenck Before the Court is relator’s petition for writ of mandamus in which he complains of the trial court’s order disqualifying relator’s trial counsel. To be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Based on the record before us, we conclude relator has not shown he is entitled to the relief requested. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a) (the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not entitled to the relief sought). 170476F.P05 /David J. Schenck/ DAVID J. SCHENCK JUSTICE
