Opinion

Order entered September 23, 2020

In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas

No. 05-19-00571-CV

IN RE MIKE HARTLEY AND JANIE HARTLEY, Relators

Original Proceeding from the 193rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-18-02863

ORDER Before Justices Schenck, Reichek, and Evans1

On May 8, 2020 the Supreme Court of Texas issued its opinion in In re

Panchakarla, 602 S.W.3d 536 (Tex. 2020) ordering this Court “to vacate its

conditional writ because the trial court did not abuse its discretion in vacating the

February 22 order.” Id. at 541. Because the supreme court’s opinion was issued

on the day of a ransomware attack on Texas’s appellate courts, we only recently

became aware of the supreme court’s opinion and directive. Accordingly, we

VACATE our May 24, 2019 order conditionally granting this writ.
