In The

Court of Appeals

For The

First District of Texas

appointing a special master amounted to an abuse of discretion for which they lack an adequate appellate remedy.2 Relators therefore requested “that this Court grant their petition for a writ of mandamus and issue [a] writ compelling the MDL court to vacate its order appointing a special master.”

Our review of relators’ mandamus petition reflects that relators have not established that they are entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, we deny relators’ petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). We dismiss any other pending motions as moot.
