COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT HOUSTON

ORDER

Appellate case name: In re Amber Yeager, Relator

Appellate case number: 01-19-00050-CV

Trial court case number: 10-FD-0068

Trial court: County Court at Law No. 1 of Galveston County

On January 17, 2019, relator, Amber Yeager, filed a petition for a writ of mandamus seeking to compel the respondent district judge to vacate his January 11, 2019 order granting the real party in interest’s motion to transfer the suit affecting the parent-child relationship to a Michigan state court and to reinstate the case. Relator has filed a certification and appendix with her petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.3(j), (k). On January 18, 2019, relator filed an “Emergency Motion to Stay Proceedings” pending disposition of this petition. Relator’s emergency motion contains the required certificate of compliance. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(a). Accordingly, the Court grants the relator’s motion and ORDERS that the underlying trial court proceeding is stayed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b). This stay is effective until the petition is finally decided or this Court otherwise orders the stay lifted. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b). Any party may file a motion for reconsideration of the stay. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(c). Finally, the Court requests a response to the petition for writ of mandamus by any real party in interest. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(b)(1). The response, if any, shall be filed within 20 days from the date of this order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 2, 52.4.
