MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Wittig //

Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion //

Relator, Santa Robles Morales, filed a petition for writ of mandamus and a motion for temporary relief on March 9, 2005. On March 10, 2005, this Court granted relator s motion for temporary relief and ordered the trial of this matter stayed pending determination of the petition for writ of mandamus. The Court requested that the real party in interest, Jesus Morales, by and through counsel, file a response to relator s petition for writ of mandamus on or before March 21, 2005. The real party in interest requested an extension of time to file his response, which we grant, and the response was accordingly filed on March 24, 2005. Relator filed a reply thereto on April 4, 2005.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus and all associated briefing, is of the opinion that relator has not shown herself entitled to the relief sought and the petition for writ of mandamus should be denied. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8. Accordingly, the stay is hereby ordered LIFTED. The petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED.

PER CURIAM
