IN RE BOBIE KENNETH TOWNSEND

________________________________________________________________________

Original Proceeding ________________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Bobie Kenneth Townsend, Relator, filed a petition for writ of mandamus and

a motion to stay all proceedings in the trial court while his mandamus proceeding

is before the Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(a). Relator seeks relief from three

orders that were signed by the Judge of the County Court at Law No. 2 of

Montgomery County, Texas, on January 30, 2015, and that he describes as: (1) a

final summary judgment, (2) an order denying Relator’s motion to show authority,

and (3) an order denying Relator’s motion for change of venue. Relator asks this

Court to direct the trial court to transfer the underlying case to an adjoining county.

Relator has not shown that he lacks an adequate remedy by appeal. See generally

In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135-36 (Tex. 2004). We deny

the petition for writ of mandamus and the motion to stay. See Tex. R. App. P.

52.8(a).

PETITION DENIED.
