DENY and Opinion Filed March 1, 2022 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-21-00688-CV IN RE CONNIE PARKER ON BEHALF OF LOUIS HENYARD, Relator Original Proceeding from the 95th District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-20-18116 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Osborne, Pedersen, III, and Goldstein Opinion by Justice Osborne In this original proceeding, relator seeks relief from the trial court’s August 5, 2021 discovery order, which denied in part a motion to compel production of certain documents pursuant to the stay of discovery found in Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 74.351(s). See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 74.351(s). To be entitled to mandamus relief, relator must demonstrate that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that she has no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). In light of the Texas Supreme Court’s recent decision in In re LCS SP, LLC, No. 20-0694 (Tex. Feb. 25, 2022) (orig. proceeding), we conclude that relator has failed to demonstrate a clear abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). We also lift the stay issued by our August 20, 2021 order. 210688f.p05 /Leslie Osborne// LESLIE OSBORNE JUSTICE –2–
