DENY; and Opinion Filed June 10, 2015.

S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-15-00682-CV IN RE KAREN NEWSOM, Relator Original Proceeding from the 219th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 219-50697-2008 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Lang-Miers, Evans, and Whitehill Opinion by Justice Lang-Miers Relator filed this petition for writ of mandamus arguing that the trial court clearly abused its discretion in refusing to decline jurisdiction in this suit affecting the parent-child relationship.

Ordinarily, to obtain mandamus relief, a relator must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that the relator has no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins.

Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). We conclude relator has failed to establish a right to the relief requested. We deny the petition.
