No. 05-14-00397-CV
IN RE ALBERT G. HILL, III, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 68th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 11-04523
ORDER
The Court has before it the petition for writ of mandamus filed in the above cause. Upon
review of the record and the briefing on file in the above captioned mandamus, Cause No. 05-14-
00397-CV, and the appeal in Cause No. 05-13-00732-CV, Albert G. Hill, III v. Albert G. Hill,
Jr., the Court concludes that there is substantial overlap among the issues presented by the
appeal, Cause No. 05-13-00732-CV, and the petition for writ of mandamus, Cause No. 05-14-
00397-CV. Accordingly, on its own motion the Court CONSOLIDATES the petition for writ
of mandamus, Cause No. 05-14-00397-CV, into the appeal, Cause No. 05-13-00732-CV. The
Court ORDERS that all future pleadings be filed in Cause No. 05-13-00732-CV. Appellant may
file additional briefing in the appeal, if desired, on the issues raised by the petition for writ of
mandamus on or before April 30, 2014 or shall notify the Court by that date that it will not file
additional briefing. Appellee may file a response to appellant’s brief within thirty days of the
date appellant files its brief or notifies the Court that it will not file briefing in addition to its
petition for writ of mandamus.
