AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING


IN MANDAMUS



 

 

 

MEMORANDUM OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

           Relator, Juan Carlos Ruffier II, asks this Court to issue a writ of mandamus against the Honorable Linda Y. Chew, Judge of the 327th District Court of El Paso County. Mandamus will lie only to correct a clear abuse of discretion. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 840 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding). Moreover, there must be no other adequate remedy at law. Id. Based on the record before us, we are unable to conclude that Respondent clearly abused her discretion. Accordingly, we deny mandamus relief and the motion for emergency relief. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a).
