NUMBER 13-08-00396-CV

COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG

IN RE COASTAL KING, LTD.

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Vela

Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion

Relator, Coastal King, Ltd., filed a petition for writ of mandamus in the above cause arguing that the trial court abused its discretion in entering an order outside of its plenary jurisdiction. This Court requested and received a response from Benigno Cerda, Jr, and Francisco Cerda, the real parties in interest, who "do not object to the granting of Relator's petition."

The Court, having examined and fully considered the petition for writ of mandamus and response thereto, is of the opinion that relator has shown itself entitled to the relief sought. Without hearing oral argument, we conditionally grant mandamus relief and direct the trial court to vacate its May 20, 2008 order granting Coastal King's Motion for Summary and Entering Death Penalty Sanctions. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(c). We are confident the trial court will promptly comply; our writ will issue only if it does not.

PER CURIAM

Memorandum Opinion delivered and

filed this 8th day of July, 2008.
