In Re Apple Inc. v. the State of Texas

Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-24-00591-CV

In re Apple Inc.

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING FROM TRAVIS COUNTY

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator Apple, Inc. filed a petition for writ of mandamus and motion for

emergency relief. We granted the motion and temporarily stayed the trial court’s amended order

granting real party in interest Studio 8 Architects, Inc.’s supplemental motion to compel Apple to

disclose damages and to produce documents to the extent that the order compels Apple to

produce documents for which Apple intends to withhold and assert a privilege. We also

requested a response. Having reviewed the petition, the response, the reply, and the records

provided, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus and lift this Court’s temporary stay of the

trial court’s amended order. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
