Opinion issued April 19, 2022 In The Court of Appeals For The First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-22-00235-CV ——————————— ZETAH LOUIS, AS NEXT FRIEND OF KHASEEN ISRAEL-BARNEY AND ABCDE PETERSON, MINOR CHILDREN, Appellant V. COREY JUJUAN WILLIAMS, Appellee On Appeal from the Probate Court No. 1 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Case No. 490,130 MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant, Zetah Louis, as next friend of the minor children Khaseen IsraelBarney and Abcde Peterson, has filed a petition for permissive appeal seeking to challenge an interlocutory order denying her pretrial motion to apply Georgia law to determine the issue of parentage. See TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 51.014(d); TEX. R. APP. P. 28.3. To be entitled to a permissive appeal from an interlocutory order that would not otherwise be appealable, the requesting party must establish that (1) the order to be appealed involves a “controlling question of law as to which there is a substantial ground for difference of opinion” and (2) an immediate appeal from the order “may materially advance the ultimate termination of the litigation.” TEX. CIV. PRAC. & REM. CODE § 51.014(d); see TEX. R. APP. P. 28.3(e)(4); TEX. R. CIV. P. 168. Because we conclude that the petition fails to establish each requirement of Rule 28.3(3)(e)(4), we deny the petition for permissive appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 28.3(e)(4). PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Radack and Justices Countiss and Farris. 2
