in Re Michael Lee Bracewell

NUMBER 13-22-00122-CV
COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG
IN RE MICHAEL LEE BRACEWELL
On Petition for Writ of Mandamus.
ORDER
Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Tijerina
Order Per Curiam
On March 24, 2022, relator Michael Lee Bracewell filed a petition for writ of
mandamus through which he asserts, in six issues, that the trial court abused its discretion
by disqualifying relator’s counsel of record. Relator also filed a “Motion to Stay Underlying
Proceedings” in which he requests that we stay the trial court proceedings pending
resolution of this petition for writ of mandamus.
The Court, having examined and fully considered the “Motion to Stay Underlying
Proceedings,” is of the opinion that it should be granted. Accordingly, we grant the motion,
and we order the trial court proceedings to be stayed pending further order of this Court,
or until this case is finally decided. See TEX. R. APP. P. 52.10(b).
The Court requests that the real party in interest, Sally Marie Bracewell, or any
others whose interest would be directly affected by the relief sought, file a response to
the petition for writ of mandamus on or before the expiration of ten days from the date of
this order. See id. R. 52.2, 52.4, 52.8.
PER CURIAM
Delivered and filed on the
25th day of March, 2022.
