IN RE TINA WHITE, Relator

Original Proceeding from the 14th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-18-00919

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Bridges, Fillmore, and Boatright Opinion by Justice Bridges Before the Court is relator’s petition for writ of mandamus in which she complains of the

trial court’s order quashing relator’s jury demand. To be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator

must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no adequate

appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig.

proceeding). Based on the record before us, we conclude relator has not shown an abuse of

discretion. Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P.

52.8(a) (the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not entitled to the relief

sought).
