On August 6, 2014, relators, Boy Scouts of America (“BSA”) and Sam Houston Area Council Boy Scouts of America (“SHAC”), filed a mandamus petition and motion for emergency stay requesting that we stay the trial court’s July 28, 2014 order compelling BSA and SHAC to produce the individuals listed in that order for depositions on or before August 7, 2014. Accordingly, we ORDER that the depositions listed in the trial court’s July 28, 2014 order in the above-referenced trial court case are stayed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b).

We further ORDER that the response to the mandamus petition by any real party in interest, if any, shall be due within 7 days of the date of this order. It is so ORDERED.
