in Re Fred T. Philips and Mercedes Philips

NUMBER 13-21-00312-CV

COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

IN RE FRED T. PHILIPS AND MERCEDES PHILIPS

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

ORDER

Before Justices Benavides, Longoria, and Tijerina Order Per Curiam

On October 1, 2021, relators Fred T. Philips and Mercedes Philips filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel the trial court to vacate its order enforcing a Rule agreement. See TEX. R. CIV. P. 11. Relators assert that the trial court abused its discretion (1) by granting a motion to enforce a Rule 11 agreement against parties that raised fact issues and revoked consent to the terms of the Rule 11 agreement, and (2) because the order granting the motion to enforce a Rule 11 agreement contains “material terms outside and beyond the Rule 11 agreement.”

The Court requests that the real parties in interest, Thomas D. Stikeleather and Lea Ann Stikeleather, or any others whose interest would be directly affected by the relief sought, file a response to the petition for writ of mandamus on or before the expiration of ten days from the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.2, 52.4, 52.8.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed on the

5th day of October, 2021.
