Mason, From the 218th Judicial District Court, Karnes County, Texas Trial Court No. 20-01-00010-CVK Honorable Russell Wilson, Judge Presiding Original Mandamus Proceeding

ORDER Sitting: Rebeca C.

On June 6, 2022, real party in interest filed a response to relators’ emergency motion for stay.

Any such response must conform to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 52.4.

We GRANT the emergency motion for stay relief as follows: 1. All proceedings in the Karnes County District Court are STAYED pending further orders of this court.

2. The trial court’s “Order Granting Injunction and Writ of Prohibition” signed on February 28, 2022, is STAYED pending further orders of this court.

It is so ORDERED on June 14, 2022.
