            Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus


                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Relator, Charles Watson, has filed a petition for writ of mandamus

challenging the trial court’s March 14, 2017 order (1) denying his motion for an

extension of discovery to conduct depositions and (2) granting real party in interest’s

cross-motion for a protective order from the depositions.1 We deny the petition. Any

pending motions are dismissed as moot.
