ORDER

Quadvest, L.P. and Woodland Oaks Utility, L.P., Relators, filed a petition for

a writ of mandamus and a motion for temporary relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.

Relators are defendants in Trial Cause Number 20-08-10189-CV, San Jacinto River

Authority v. Quadvest, L.P. d/b/a Quadvest Water and Sewer Utility and Woodland

Oaks Utility, L.P. Relators seek a writ compelling the Honorable Kristin Bays, Judge

of the 284th District Court of Montgomery County, Texas, to abate Trial Cause

Number 20-08-10189-CV pending resolution of an accelerated appeal in Trial Cause

Number 19-09-12611-CV. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221.

1 Relators request that all further proceedings in Trial Cause Number 20-08-

10189-CV, including discovery, in the trial court be stayed while this Court

considers the mandamus petition. The Court finds temporary relief is necessary to

prevent undue prejudice. It is ORDERED that all discovery and all further trial court

proceedings in Trial Cause Number 20-08-10189-CV 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 Relators as a condition to any relief herein granted.

MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RELIEF GRANTED.

ORDER ENTERED July 13, 2021.
