IN RE CHARLES WATSON, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

270th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2015-28746-B MEMORANDUM MAJORITY OPINION

On August 17, 2021, relator Charles Watson filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Dedra Davis, presiding judge of the 270th District Court of Harris County, to set aside her August 9, 2021 order granting real parties in interest’s motion for leave to designate responsible third parties.

Relator has not established that he is entitled mandamus relief. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. We also deny relator’s motion to stay.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Wise and Spain. (Spain, J., dissenting).
