deposition of Michael Ford, currently noticed for 10:00 a.m. on September 19, 2014, is stayed.
The stay is effective until disposition of relator’s petition for writ of mandamus or further order
of this Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b).

        The Court requests a response to the petition for writ of mandamus from the real party in
interest, Julie Rogers, as Next Friend of Dalton Rogers, a Minor. The response, if any, is due to
be filed with this Court no later than September 30, 2014.

       It is so ORDERED.
