Opinion

DENY and Opinion Filed July 5, 2022

S In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-22-00435-CV IN RE BRENDA L. CADDELL, Relator Original Proceeding from the 303rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DF-19-13738 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Schenck, Reichek, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Reichek In her May 6, 2022 petition for writ of mandamus, relator Brenda Caddell challenges the trial court’s (1) ruling sustaining the denial of her objection to the visiting judge, and (2) refusal to reconsider the enforcement motion that the visiting judge had denied. Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that she lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Copart, Inc., 619 S.W.3d 710, 713 (Tex. 2021) (orig. proceeding) (citing 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 an abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a).
