Deny Opinion Filed September 29, 2021 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-21-00718-CV IN RE JAY SANDON COOPER AND TERESA WARD COOPER, Relators Original Proceeding from the Local Administrative Law Judge Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. Not Assigned, Petition not Filed MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Osborne, Pedersen, and Goldstein Opinion by Justice Goldstein In this petition for writ of mandamus, relators challenge the trial court’s order denying relator Jay Sandon Cooper, a vexatious litigant, permission to file an original proceeding as an intervenor with his wife, Teresa Ward Cooper named as the petitioner. Entitlement to mandamus relief requires a relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that he lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Based on our review of the petition, we conclude that relators have failed to demonstrate a clear abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. 210718F.P05 /Bonnie Lee Goldstein/ BONNIE LEE GOLDSTEIN JUSTICE
