IN RE RAYMOND CHOATE AND KELLY MALLADY, Relators

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS County Civil Court at Law No. 1 Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 1180192 MEMORANDUM OPINION Relators Raymond Choate and Kelly Mallady filed a joint 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, relators ask this Court to compel the Honorable Audrie Lawton-Evans, presiding judge of the County Civil Court at Law No. 1 of Harris County, to vacate the trial court’s April 12, 2022 order compelling relator Raymond Choate’s examination under oath.

Relators have not established that they are entitled to mandamus relief.

Accordingly, we deny relators’ petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Zimmerer, Spain, and Poissant.
