IN RE SPIRES ASSOCIATION AND ALEX RAMIREZ, Relators

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS 215th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2018-44090 MEMORANDUM OPINION On November 22, 2022, relators Spires Association and Alex Ramirez 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, relators ask this Court to compel the Honorable Elaine Palmer, presiding judge of the 215th District Court of Harris County, to vacate the trial court’s September 12, 2022 order granting plaintiffs’ motion for spoliation instructions and ordering sanctions.

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

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