IN RE STEVE GRIFFITH IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY, DOUGLAS BRINKLEY IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY, SCOTT SCHULTZ IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY, AND MARK GROTHAUS IN HIS OFFICIAL CAPACITY, Relators
ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS AND WRIT OF INJUNCTION 434th District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 14-DCV-216856
ORDER
On November 6, 2014, relators Steve Griffith, Douglas Brinkley, Scott Schultz, and Mark Grothaus, all in their official capacity, filed a petition for writ of mandamus and writ of injunction with this court. See Tex. Gov’t Code § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In their petition, relators ask this court to order the Honorable James H. Shoemake, presiding judge of the 434th District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas, to either sign an order memorializing the trial court’s decision to deny relators’ plea to the jurisdiction, or, in the alternative, to vacate an order denying relators’ motion to stay the underlying proceedings pending the resolution of relators’ interlocutory appeal.
Relators also have filed with this court a motion for temporary relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(b), 52.10. On November 6, 2014, relators asked this court to stay proceedings in the trial court pending disposition by this court of relators’ petition for writ of mandamus and writ of injunction.
It appears from the facts stated in the petition and motion that relators’ request for relief requires further consideration and that relators will be prejudiced unless immediate temporary relief is granted. We therefore GRANT relators’ motion and issue the following order:
We ORDER all proceedings in trial court cause number 14-DCV-216856, styled Collision Clinic, L.L.C. and Hanna “John” Elias v. A&M Wrecker Service, LLC, et al., STAYED until a final decision by this court on relators’ petition for writ of mandamus and writ of injunction, or until further order of this court.
In addition, the court requests that real parties in interest Collision Clinic, L.L.C. and Hanna “John” Elias file a response to relators’ petition for writ of mandamus and writ of injunction on or before November 24, 2014. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.4.
2 PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Boyce, Jamison, and Donovan.
