In The

Court of Appeals For The

First District of Texas ———————————— NO. 01-26-00477-CV ——————————— IN RE HOLLIE KLEITZ, Relator

Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Relator, Hollie Kleitz, filed a petition for writ of mandamus challenging two

trial court orders signed on May 6, 2026, including an order denying relator’s

“Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings or, in the Alternative, Motion to Deem

Allegations Admitted,” and an order “granting [r]eal [p]arty in [i]nterest Avi Ron’s Motion for Leave to Amend” his answer.1 Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus

requested that the Court direct the trial court to vacate the orders. Relator further

requested emergency relief to stay trial in the underlying cause, which had

commenced at the time the mandamus petition was filed.

We conclude that relator has failed to establish she is entitled to mandamus

relief, and therefore, the Court denies relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. We

further deny relator’s request for emergency relief. We dismiss any pending motion

as moot.
