IN RE ALLSTATE FIRE AND CASUALTY INSURANCE COMPANY, Relator


ORIGINAL PROCEEDING WRIT OF MANDAMUS
133rd District Court Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2018-86632

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On March 24, 2020, relator Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company 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, relator asks this court to compel the Honorable Jaclanel McFarland, presiding judge of the 133rd District Court of Harris County, to set aside her January 24, 2020 order compelling Allstate to produce one or more corporate representatives for deposition in the underlying uninsured/underinsured motorist case.

Relator has not shown that it is entitled to mandamus relief. Accordingly, we deny relator's petition for writ of mandamus. We lift our stay entered on March 25, 2020.

PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Bourliot, Hassan, and Poissant.
