________________________________________________________ _____________
ORDER
Paula Cook filed a petition for writ of mandamus. The relator is a plaintiff in
Cause No. 57,454, Paula Cook v. Charles M. Kibler Jr. Relator seeks a writ
compelling the Honorable Steven R. Thomas, Judge of the 356th District Court, to
vacate an order expunging a notice of lis pendens. We note our jurisdiction over
this matter and the parties. See Tex. Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221 (West 2004).
Relator alleges that prejudice will result if the trial court’s order is filed in
the Hardin County real property records before the issues raised in the petition for
writ of mandamus can be resolved.

The Court finds temporary relief is necessary to prevent undue prejudice. It
is ORDERED that the trial court’s order of November 1, 2016, in Cause No.
57,454 is STAYED until our Opinion issues or until further order of this Court.
See Tex. R. App. P. 52.10(b). No bond is required of the relator as a condition to
any relief herein granted.
The response of the real party in interest, Charles M. Kibler Jr., is due
November 17, 2016.
