IN RE COLUMBIA HOSPITAL AT MEDICAL CITY DALLAS SUBSIDIARY, L.P. D/B/A MEDICAL CITY DALLAS HOSPITAL, Relator

Original Proceeding from the 101st Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-20-18552

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Pedersen, III, Nowell, and Miskel Opinion by Justice Miskel In its May 10, 2023 petition for writ of mandamus, relator seeks relief from

part of a trial court order compelling it to answer an interrogatory.

Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show that the trial court

clearly abused its discretion and that relator lacks an adequate appellate remedy.

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

proceeding). After reviewing relator’s petition and the record before us, we conclude

that relator has failed to demonstrate entitlement to mandamus relief. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P.

52.8(a).
