in Re: The State of Texas

Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS EL PASO, TEXAS

§ No. 08-16-00156-CR IN RE: § ORIGINAL PROCEEDING STATE OF TEXAS, § ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF RELATOR. § MANDAMUS

JUDGMENT

The Court has considered this cause on the Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus

against the Honorable Luis Aguilar, Judge of the 243rd District Court of El Paso County, Texas,

and concludes that Relator’s petition for writ of mandamus should be conditionally granted. We

therefore direct the trial court to withdraw the order disqualifying Assistant District Attorney

Denise Butterworth from the prosecution of the case against Luis Solis Gonzalez, in accordance

with the opinion of this Court. The writ of mandamus will issue should the trial court fail to

comply.

IT IS SO ORDERED THIS 30TH DAY OF NOVEMBER, 2016.

YVONNE T. RODRIGUEZ, Justice
