IN RE PETROLEUM WORKERS UNION OF THE REPUBLIC OF MEXICO, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On August 21, 2013, relator Petroleum Workers Union of the Republic of Mexico filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. §22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asks this Court to order the Honorable Sylvia Matthews, presiding judge of the 281st District Court of Harris County, to set aside her August 16, 2013 order denying its motion to compel. Relator also requests that we order Judge Matthews to rule, in response to a pending motion for reconsideration, that Mexican law applies to the issue of authority to bind relator to certain agreements.

On this record, relator has not established its entitlement to the extraordinary relief of a writ of mandamus. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus and also deny relator’s related emergency motion to stay proceedings.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Frost, Busby, and Donovan.
