Original Proceeding 60th District Court of Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. B-203,433 ________________________________________________________________________

ORDER

Kirbyville Consolidated Independent School District, Tommy Wallis, Chad

George, Joey Davis, Clint Smith, Dustin Rutherford, Stacie Rutherford, William

Thomas Brockman, Debra Brockman, Amy Brockman Fountain, Marcia Morgan,

and Georgia Sayers, relators, filed a petition for writ of mandamus. The relators are

defendants in Cause No. B-203,433, Tammy Reeves, et al. v. Kirbyville Consolidated

1 Independent School District, et al. Relators seek a writ compelling the Honorable

Justin Gary Sanderson, Judge of the 60th District Court, to (1) vacate an order

denying a motion to transfer venue, (2) vacate an order granting a continuance of a

plea to the jurisdiction and allowing for discovery, and (3) transfer the case to Jasper

County. We note our jurisdiction over this matter and the parties. See Tex. Gov’t

Code Ann. § 22.221 (West Supp. 2018).

Relators request that all further proceedings in the trial court be stayed as

temporary relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(a). The Court finds temporary relief is

necessary to prevent undue prejudice. It is ORDERED that all further proceedings,

including discovery, in Cause No. B-203,433, are STAYED until our Opinion issues

or until further order of this Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b). No bond is required

of the relators as a condition to any relief herein granted.

MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RELIEF GRANTED.

ORDER ENTERED July 2, 2019. PER CURIAM Before Kreger, Horton and Johnson, JJ.
