Deny and Opinion Filed July 17, 2015
S In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-15-00815-CV
IN RE KEITH COLEMAN AND CEDAR CANYON RANCH & VENUE, Relators
Original Proceeding Appeal from the Probate Court No. 2
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. PR-13-00345-2
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Bridges, and Justice Brown
Opinion by Justice Bridges
Relator filed this petition for writ of mandamus requesting that the Court order the trial
court to “dismiss without prejudice any and all orders and judgment” in this case and “issue an
order dismissing without prejudice” the motion for summary judgment filed by real party in
interest. Relators contend that the actions of the trial court were void. Mandamus relief is
available if a trial court clearly abused its discretion by rendering a void order. In re Sw. Bell
Tel. Co., 35 S.W.3d 602, 605 (Tex. 2000) (orig. proceeding). Relators have not demonstrated
that the trial court’s orders were void. We deny the petition.
