DENIED and Opinion Filed October 1, 2024 In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-24-00950-CV IN RE DAVID LATHAM, M.D., DILLON PAUL, M.D., AND AKRAM ABD EL KADER, M.D., Relators Original Proceeding from the 44th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. DC-21-04271 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Pedersen, III, Smith, and Garcia Opinion by Justice Pedersen, III In this original proceeding, relators seek mandamus relief from three discovery orders: (1) Order Denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel EHC Consulting, LLC’s Responses to Subpoena and Request for Sanctions; (2) Order Denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel Non-Parties ER Hulen, LLC, ER Addison, LLC, and ERNearMe Plano, LLC’s Responses to Subpoena and Request for Sanctions; and (3) Order Granting Defendants’ Motion to Quash Plaintiffs’ Subpoena Duces Tecum to MedOps Consulting, LLC and Motion for Protection, and Denying Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel MedOps Consulting, LLC’s Discovery Responses. Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relators to show that the trial court clearly abused its discretion and that relators lack an adequate remedy by appeal. In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am.,
148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding). After reviewing the petition, the response, and the record before us, we conclude that relators have failed to demonstrate that the trial court clearly abused its discretion. Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). /Bill Pedersen, III// BILL PEDERSEN, III 240950f.p05 JUSTICE –2–
