COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

IN RE PAUL DAVID ALTHEIDE

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.

ORDER Before Justices Benavides, Tijerina, and Peña Order Per Curiam

On February 8, 2023, relator Paul David Altheide filed a petition for writ of

mandamus and an emergency motion for temporary relief in the above-referenced cause.

By petition for writ of mandamus, relator contends that the trial court abused its discretion

by issuing an order on February 7, 2023 requiring relator to comply with a subpoena

duces tecum. By emergency motion for temporary relief, relator seek to stay the February

7, 2023 order pending resolution of this petition for writ of mandamus.

This Court, having examined and fully considered relator’s emergency motion for temporary relief, is of the opinion that it should be granted. Accordingly, we grant the

emergency motion for temporary relief, and we order the February 7, 2023 order to be

stayed pending the resolution of this original proceeding. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b)

(“Unless vacated or modified, an order granting temporary relief is effective until the case

is finally decided.”). We request the real parties in interest, Margaret Doughty and Edith

Gower, or any others whose interest may be directly affected by the relief sought,

including but not limited to Chelette Baker, Samantha Garcia, Karmen Schuster, and

Yaalx Inc., to file a response to the petition for writ of mandamus within ten (10) days from

the date of this order. See id. R. 52.4, 52.8.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed on the 8th day of February, 2023.
