IN RE JAMES D. STRACHAN, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On May 5, 2009, relator, James D. Strachan, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable William R. Burke, Jr., sitting by assignment in the 434th District Court of Fort Bend County, to vacate his orders signed on April 2, 2009, and void his stay of discovery. 

Relator has not established his entitlement to the extraordinary relief of a writ of mandamus.  Accordingly, we deny relator=s petition for writ of mandamus and his related emergency motion to stay. 

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Anderson, Seymore, and Brown.
