in Re Port Isabel Logistical Offshore Terminal, Inc. ( 2021 )

NUMBER 13-21-00368-CV COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG IN RE PORT ISABEL LOGISTICAL OFFSHORE TERMINAL, INC. On Petition for Writ of Mandamus. ORDER Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Hinojosa and Silva Order Per Curiam Relator Port Isabel Logistical Offshore Terminal, Inc. has filed a petition for writ of mandamus arguing that the trial court abused its discretion by: (1) orally ruling at a hearing on April 27, 2021 that “all bonds remain in place”; and (2) signing an order on October 26, 2021 which allowed real party in interest Subsea 7 Port Isabel LLC access to the subject property “for the purposes of inspecting the property and improvements, preparing for removal, and obtaining necessary permits.” Relator has filed an “Emergency Motion for Stay” asking us to stay the trial court’s October 26, 2021 order until such time as this Court can fully consider the petition for writ of mandamus. Having reviewed the petition, motion, and record documents provided by relator, this Court finds that the Emergency Motion for Stay has merit and should be granted. Accordingly, Relator’s Emergency Motion for Stay is GRANTED, and the trial court’s October 26, 2021 order is hereby STAYED until such time as this Court can fully consider the petition for writ of mandamus, or until further order of this Court. We further ORDER that real party in interest file a response to the petition for writ of mandamus and/or emergency motion for stay with this Court on or before 5:00 p.m. on Friday, November 5, 2021. PER CURIAM Delivered and filed on the 27th day of October, 2021. 2
