IN RE JAMES G. STRACHAN, Relator

ORIGINAL PROCEEDING

WRIT OF MANDAMUS

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

On April 23, 2008, relator, James G. Strachan, filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this court.  See Tex. Gov=t Code Ann. ' 22.221 (Vernon 2004); see also Tex. R. App. P. 52.  In the petition, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable P.K. Reiter, visiting judge of the 434th District Court of Fort Bend County, to vacate the June 12, 2007 order regarding the completion of a stock sale; the March 28, 2008 order granting the motion for protection filed by real party in interest, Marie Starich; and the April 5, 2008 order denying relator=s motion to disqualify Starich=s counsel.

Relator has not established his entitlement to the extraordinary relief of a writ of mandamus.  Accordingly, we deny relator=s petition for writ of mandamus.  We further lift our April 25, 2008 order staying the trial court proceedings.

PER CURIAM

Petition Denied and Memorandum Opinion filed June 20, 2008.

Panel consists of Justices Frost, Seymore, and Guzman.
