in Re David Barnes ( 2022 )

DENY and Opinion Filed May 31, 2022
In The
Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-22-00287-CV
IN RE DAVID BARNES, Relator
Original Proceeding from the 330th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DF-11-11126
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Myers, Nowell, and Goldstein
Opinion by Justice Myers
Relator’s April 1, 2022 petition for writ of mandamus challenges the trial
court’s order denying his motion for a custody evaluation. Entitlement to mandamus
relief requires relator to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and
that he lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In re Prudential Ins. Co., 148 S.W.3d
124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). After reviewing the petition and the
record, we conclude that relator has failed to show an abuse of discretion. See TEX.
R. APP. P. 52.8(a). Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus.
