IN RE RAPID SETTLEMENTS, LTD., Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

            On March 3, 2010, relator Rapid Settlements, Ltd. filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relator asked this court to compel the Honorable Patricia Hancock, presiding judge of the 113th District Court of Harris County, to set aside her February 22, 2010, order compelling the deposition of relator’s corporate representative, compelling the production of documents, and awarding sanctions, entered in trial court cause number 2006-23366A. Relator also filed an emergency motion to stay the trial court’s order during the pendency of this proceeding. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10.

            Relator has not established that it is entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, we

deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus and emergency motion for stay.

                                                                        PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Anderson and Christopher.
