OPINION ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS

Relator, Gilbert Andrews, asks this Court to issue a writ of mandamus against the Honorable Jose J. Baca, County Court at Law No. 7 of El Paso County.  Mandamus will lie only to correct a clear abuse of discretion.  Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 840 (Tex. 1992)(orig. proceeding).  Moreover, there must be no other adequate remedy at law.  Id.  Based on the record before us, we are unable to conclude that Respondent clearly abused his discretion or that Relators have no other adequate remedy.  Accordingly, we deny mandamus relief.  See Tex.R.App.P. 52.8(a).
