DENY and Opinion Filed January 10, 2022

S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-21-00617-CV IN RE ANDREW WILKERSON, Relator Original Proceeding from the 301st Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-19-21377 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Molberg, Reichek, and Smith Opinion by Justice Smith In this original proceeding, relator challenges the trial court’s contempt order in the underlying suit affecting the parent-child relationship. Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that he lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding).

Based on our review of the petition and the record, we conclude that relator has failed to show his entitlement to the relief requested. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).

Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus.
