On August 10, 2018, relator, Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, filed three related petitions for writs of mandamus seeking to compel the respondent district judge to hold adversary hearings in the underlying suits affecting the parent-child relationships. Relator has included a record with each petition. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.7. With each petition, relator also filed an opposed “Motion for Stay Pending Petition for Writ of Mandamus,” seeking a temporary, emergency stay of the underlying proceedings, pending disposition of these petitions.
