IN RE MARK A. METZGER JR., Relator





Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus





MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Relator, Mark A. Metzger Jr. (“Metzger”), has filed a petition for writ of mandamus complaining of the trial court’s June 30, 2006 oral ruling ordering Metzger to deposit with the trial court clerk $168,000 as security to suspend judgment. After due consideration, the Court denies the petition for writ of mandamus.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Taft, Higley, and Bland.
