IN RE MASTER FLO VALVE INC. AND MASTER FLO VALVE (USA), INC., Relators

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS 80th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 2014-00695

ORDER

On November 17, 2015, relators Master Flo Valve Inc. and Master Flo Valve (USA), Inc., filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. Relators ask this court to order the Honorable Larry Weiman, Judge of the 80th District Court, in Harris County, Texas, to set aside his discovery order dated November 6, 2015, entered in trial court number 2014-00695, styled Alpha Solutions S.A., DE C.V. et al v. Master Fo Valve Inc. et al.

On November 17, 2015, relators asked this court to stay the discovery order dated November 6, 2015 pending a decision on the petition for writ of mandamus. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(b), 52.10.

It appears from the facts stated in the petition and motion that relators’ request for relief requires further consideration and that relators will be prejudiced unless immediate temporary relief is granted. We therefore GRANT relators’ motion and issue the following order:

We ORDER the discovery order dated November 6, 2015 in trial court cause number 2014-00695, Alpha Solutions S.A., DE C.V. et al v. Master Fo Valve Inc. et al, STAYED until a final decision by this court on relators’ petition for writ of mandamus, or until further order of this court.

In addition, the court requests Alpha Solutions S.A. de C.V., Contro-Tec, L.L.C., andContro-Tec S.A. de C.V., the real parties-in-interest, to file a response to the petition for writ of mandamus on or before December 3, 2015. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.4.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Jamison, McCally, and Wise.
