Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-21-00578-CV
IN RE MAETZI MILLER, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 303rd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DF-21-02529
ORDER
Before Justices Molberg, Reichek, and Smith
Relator’s July 15, 2021 petition for writ of mandamus challenges the trial
court’s “Order Granting Plaintiff Jerod Miller’s Motion for Traditional and No
Evidence Summary Judgment.” Relator is also challenging the same order pursuant
to his interlocutory appeal pending under cause number 05-21-00422-CV. We
conclude that these proceedings should be decided together.
Accordingly, on the Court’s own motion, we ORDER cause number 05-21-
00578-CV CONSOLIDATED into cause number 05-21-00422-CV. We DIRECT
the Clerk of this Court to remove all documents from cause number 05-21-00578-
CV and refile them in cause number 05-21-00422-CV and to treat cause number
05-21-00578-CV as a closed case. We ORDER that all future filings bear only
cause number 05-21-00422-CV. All current deadlines in cause number 05-21-
00422-CV remain in place.
On the Court’s motion, we also STAY the enforcement hearing currently set
for July 16, 2021. We further request that the real party in interest and respondent
file a response, if any, to the petition for writ of mandamus within TWENTY
DAYS of this order. In accordance with this consolidation order, that response
should be filed in cause number 05-21-00422-CV.
We DIRECT the Clerk of this Court to send a copy of this order to all
parties, the trial judge, and the Dallas District Court Clerk.
