IN RE HOPE CHARITIES, INC., Relator

Original Proceeding from the 44th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 18-13404

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Bridges, Osborne, and Carlyle Opinion by Justice Bridges In this original proceeding, relator Hope Charities, Inc. complains of a February 10, 2019

order granting a Rule 202 deposition of relator’s corporate representative. To be entitled to

mandamus relief, a relator must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and

that relator has no adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36

(Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). Based on the record before us, we conclude relator has not shown

a clear abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. See

TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a) (the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not

entitled to the relief sought).
