See Tex. Gov t Code § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. Relator complains that respondent, the Honorable James Robertson, an associate judge for the 300th District Court of Brazoria County, abused his discretion in quashing discovery subpoenas issued in a modification proceeding pending in cause number 48170. Relator also filed an emergency motion seeking a stay of hearings scheduled for January 5, 2011, and February 2, 2011. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(a). We deny the motion. We do not have mandamus jurisdiction over an associate judge. See Tex. Gov't Code § 22.221(b) (providing for mandamus jurisdiction over a judge of a district or county court); In re Walker, No. 01-08-00253-CV, 2008 WL 1830400 (Tex.
