Relator requests that enforcement proceedings in the trial court be stayed
while this Court considers the mandamus petition. The Court finds temporary relief
is necessary to prevent undue prejudice. It is ORDERED that the hearing on the
Application for Show Cause Order and Motion for Contempt and Sanctions, and
further enforcement of the trial court’s discovery orders of September 27, 2021, in
Trial Cause Number 19-07-09268-CV are 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
Relator as a condition to any relief herein granted.
