In Re: Vernon Louis Nedbalek

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Garza

Per Curiam

Relator, Vernon Louis Nedbalek, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in which he requests this Court direct the Honorable Richard Hatch, III, Judge of the San Patricio County Court at Law, to vacate his December 2, 2005 order appointing Michael George as temporary administrator of the estate of Abilene Ella Nedbalek.

This Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus and all responses from real-parties-in-interest, is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief sought and that the request should be denied.  See Tex. R. App.  P. 52.8(a).  The petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED.
