In The Court of Appeals For The First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-23-00510-CV ——————————— IN RE ALI CHOUDHRI, 9201 MEMORIAL LLC, AND 2727 KIRBY 26L LLC, Relators

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION Relators, Ali Choudhri, 9201 Memorial LLC, and 2727 Kirby 26L LLC (collectively, “relators”), have filed a petition for a writ of mandamus, arguing that this Court should stay the trial court’s July 12, 2023 order because the trial court “abused [its] discretion and violated the [Texas Citizen’s Participation Act (‘TCPA’)] by ordering discovery that was not limited in scope and relevant to [relators’] TCPA [m]otion” and without “evidence of good cause.” Relators further

assert that the trial court erred “by awarding sanctions without having given Choudhri notice and opportunity to be heard.”1 We deny the petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). All pending motions are dismissed as moot.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Chief Justice Adams, and Justices Hightower and Countiss.

The underlying case is Osama Abdullatif, Individually, and Abdullatif & Company, LLC v. Ali Choudhri, 9201 Memorial LLC, 2727 Kirby 26L LLC, Memorial Glen Cove LLC, Memorial Park LLC, and VGRP Holdings LLC, Cause No. 2023-10986 in the 189th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Tamika Craft presiding.
