IN RE JACK EDWARD JOHNSON II, Relator
Original Proceeding on Petition for Writ of Mandamus
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Relator, Jack Edward Johnson II, filed this petition for writ of mandamus challenging the trial court's February 16, 2018 divorce decree. Johnson has previously appealed this decree and filed a petition for writ of mandamus concerning this decree.
The underlying case is In the Matter of the Marriage of Jack Edward Johnson II and Amy Laura Delzotto; In the Interest of J.L.J. and G.L.D., Children, cause number 2016-36745, pending in the 312th District Court of Harris County, Texas, the Honorable Clinton E. Wells presiding.
Johnson's appeal was filed in appellate cause number 01-18-00391-CV. The previous mandamus was filed in appellate cause number 01-18-00793-CV.
Johnson had an adequate remedy by appeal and, therefore, he is not entitled to the remedy of mandamus. See Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 840, 844 (Tex. 1992) (holding that relators had adequate remedy by appeal and mandamus was inappropriate).
PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Kelly, Hightower, and Countiss.
