ORIGINAL PROCEEDING
WRIT OF MANDAMUS

MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 18, 2023, relators Kelsey-Sebold Medical Group, P.L.L.C. and
Deepali Patni, M.D. filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this Court. See Tex.
Gov’t Code Ann. § 22.221; see also Tex. R. App. P. 52. In the petition, relators
ask this Court to compel the Honorable C. Elliott Thornton, presiding judge of the
164th District Court of Harris County, to vacate the trial court’s June 2, 2023 order
denying relators’ traditional and no-evidence summary judgment motion on
plaintiff’s informed consent claim.
Relators have not established that they are entitled to mandamus relief.
Accordingly, we deny relators’ petition for writ of mandamus.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Chief Justice Christopher and Justices Zimmerer and Poissant.
