No. 04-23-00740-CR

IN RE Yonatan GARCIA-ESCALANTE, Relator

Original Proceeding 1

ORDER

On August 10, 2023, Relator, Yonatan Garcia-Escalante, filed a petition for writ of mandamus, complaining of the trial court’s July 6, 2023, order. Garcia-Escalante also filed a motion to stay the underlying proceedings, which we granted on August 16, 2023. We further ordered this case abated on November 20, 2023.

After considering the petition and the record, the court concludes Garcia-Escalante is not entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, we REINSTATE this case on the court’s active docket and DENY the petition for writ of mandamus.

The stay issued on August 16, 2023, is LIFTED.

It is so ORDERED on March 12, 2025.
