ORDER
On February 28, 2014, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Bank Of Montreal, The
Prudential Insurance Company Of America, Thomas E. Mcgraw, And Troy
Jefferson filed a petition for writ of mandamus to compel the judge of the 58th
District Court of Jefferson County, Texas to grant a continuance of the trial and
permit additional discovery in trial court case number A-189,693. On March 7,
2014, the judge recused himself from further consideration of the case. We may
abate a mandamus proceeding when a trial judge recuses after the mandamus
1
proceeding is filed. See In re Blevins, No. 12-0636, 2013 WL 5878910, at *2 (Tex.
Nov. 1, 2013) (orig. proceeding).
This original proceeding is hereby abated for thirty days, to provide the
relator with the opportunity to present this matter to the successor judge. Id., see
also Tex. R. App. P. 7.2(b). The supplemental mandamus record is due May 12,
2014. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.7(b). Our temporary order of March 3, 2014, remains
in effect. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b).
