DENIED and Opinion Filed November 21, 2019 S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-19-01200-CV IN RE CANDACE BELL, Relator Original Proceeding from the 256th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-15-12975 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Whitehill, Partida-Kipness, and Pedersen Opinion by Justice Whitehill Before the court is relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relators have no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). After reviewing the petition for writ of mandamus and the applicable law, we conclude relator has not shown she 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). 191200F.P05 /Bill Whitehill/ BILL WHITEHILL JUSTICE
