IN RE PANEE LARKSUKTHOM POPOV, Relator
Original Proceedings from the 469th Judicial District Court
Collin County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. 469-50515-2024 and 469-50532-2024
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Pedersen, III, Smith, and Garcia
Opinion by Justice Pedersen, III
Before the Court is relator’s April 26, 2024 petition for writ mandamus.
Relator asks this Court to compel the trial court to grant a protective order or,
alternatively, to enter an order that finds whether family violence has occurred.
Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relator to show that the trial court
clearly abused its discretion and that relator lacks an adequate appellate remedy. In
re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig.
proceeding). After reviewing relator’s petition and the record before us, we conclude
that relator has failed to demonstrate entitlement to mandamus relief.
Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P.
52.8(a).
Further, relator filed a separate mandamus record in support of her petition.
Although relator made efforts to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure
9.9, the mandamus record nonetheless contains unredacted sensitive data, including
a minor’s name. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.9. Accordingly, we strike relator’s mandamus
record.
