IN RE KATY SPRINGS & MANUFACTURING, INC., Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

133rd District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2011-15658

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On January 25, 2012, relator 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 Jaclanel McFarland, presiding judge of the 133rd District Court of Harris County, to set aside her orders to quash signed December 28, 2011, and January 3, 2012.

A trial court abuses its discretion if it reaches a decision so arbitrary and unreasonable as to amount to a clear and prejudicial error of law, or if it clearly fails to analyze or apply the law correctly. In re Cerberus Capital Mgmt., L.P., 164 S.W.3d 379, 382 (Tex. 2005). In its mandamus petition, relator failed to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion by sustaining any of the following: (1) the objections by G2 Partners, LLC that the document request in the subpoena is overly broad, unduly burdensome, and constitutes a “fishing expedition,” and (2) the objections by the real party in interest that the document request in the subpoena is not confined to claims and injuries alleged or issues relevant to the underlying lawsuit and constitutes a “fishing expedition.”

Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Frost, Brown, and Christopher.
