Relator, Martin Charo, filed a petition for writ of mandamus and an emergency motion for temporary stay in the above cause on November 20, 2008. That same day, the Court granted the motion for emergency stay and stayed the trial court's order of November 14, 2008, ordering the production of documents from Dr. Bruce Berbarian. The Court further requested that the real party in interest, Virgilio Coronado, by and through counsel, file a response to relator's petition for writ of mandamus, and such response was duly filed on December 1, 2008.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus, the response, and relator's reply brief, is of the opinion that relator has not shown himself entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, the stay previously imposed by this Court is LIFTED. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b) ("Unless vacated or modified, an order granting temporary relief is effective until the case is finally decided."). The petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See id. 52.8(a).
