IN RE PAULA GIST, INDIVIDUALLY AND AS HEIR TO J. STEVEN GIST, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS County Court at Law No. 2 Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 68377 MEMORANDUM MAJORITY OPINION On July 14, 2023, relator Paula Gist, Individually and as heir to J. Steven Gist filed a 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, relator asks this Court to compel the Honorable Tyra McCollum, presiding judge of the County Court at Law No. 2 of Fort Bend County, to vacate the trial court’s June 1, 2023 order granting plaintiff’s motion to compel post judgment discovery.

Relator has not established that she is entitled to mandamus relief.

Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Wise, Bourliot, and Spain (Spain, J., dissenting).
