DENIED and Opinion Filed January 17, 2019
S In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-19-00062-CV
IN RE SUSAN GAIL PERRILLOUX, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 134th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DC-17-028491
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Brown, Schenck, and Reichek
Opinion by Justice Reichek
Before the Court is relator’s petition for writ of mandamus in which she contends the trial
court abused its discretion by denying her motion for protective order related to the location and
scope of a notice of deposition and subpoena duces tecum. To be entitled to mandamus relief, a
relator must show both that the trial court has clearly abused its discretion and that relator has no
adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig.
proceeding). As the party seeking relief, the relator has the burden of providing the Court with a
sufficient mandamus record to establish her right to mandamus relief. Walker v. Packer, 827
S.W.2d 833, 837 (Tex. 1992) (orig. proceeding). Here, the mandamus record does not include all
of the documents considered by the trial court in making its decision. Based on the record before
us, we conclude relator has not shown the trial court abused its discretion.
Accordingly, we deny relator’s petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a)
(the court must deny the petition if the court determines relator is not entitled to the relief sought).
