COURT OF APPEALS
EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
EL PASO, TEXAS
§
§ No. 08-13-00120-CV
IN RE: TEXAS FARMERS
INSURANCE COMPANY, § AN ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
Relator. § IN MANDAMUS
§
§
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Texas Farmers Insurance Company, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus
against the Honorable Angie Juarez Barill, Judge of the 346th District Court of El Paso County
Texas. Relator asks the Court to issue a writ of mandamus requiring Respondent: (1) to vacate
her orders denying a plea in abatement and a motion to compel appraisal, as well as her orders
denying Relator’s motions to reconsider; and (2) to order appraisal and sever the extra-
contractual claims from the breach of contract claim, and/or abate the extra-contractual claims
until the breach of contract claim is fully resolved.
To be entitled to mandamus relief, a relator must meet two requirements. First, the
relator must show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. In re Prudential Insurance
Company of America, 148 S.W.3d 124, 135 (Tex. 2004). Second, the relator must demonstrate
that there is no adequate remedy by appeal. In re Prudential Insurance Company of America,
148 S.W.3d at 135-36. Based on the record before us, we conclude that Relator has not
established it is entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, the petition for writ of mandamus is
denied. See TEX.R.APP.P. 52.8(a).
