An Original Proceeding



in Mandamus







MEMORANDUM OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS



Relator, Marilyn S. Johnson, seeks a writ of mandamus against the Honorable Eduardo A. Gamboa, Judge of the Probate 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 petition and record before us, we are unable to conclude that Relator is entitled to the relief requested. Accordingly, we deny mandamus relief. See Tex.R.App.P. 52.8(a).
