IN RE Eunice VILLANUEVA, Relator


Original Proceeding

This proceeding arises in connection with cause number 2023-CI-22284, pending in the 285th District Court of Bexar County, Texas, the Honorable Rosie Alvarado, presiding.

Sitting: Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice, Beth Watkins, Justice Lori I. Valenzuela

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

On January 16, 2024, relator filed a petition for a writ of mandamus and a motion for emergency relief. Relator complains the trial court erred in granting the real party in interest's motion to compel arbitration. However, mandamus will issue only to correct a clear abuse of discretion for which the relator has no adequate remedy at law. In re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135 (Tex. 2004) (orig. proceeding); see also In re Ayad, 655 S.W.3d 285, 290 (Tex. 2022) ("We have long held that an adequate remedy for a trial court's error in compelling the parties to arbitrate is available through an eventual appeal from a final judgment enforcing an arbitration award.") (citations omitted). After consideration of the petition and record, this court concludes relator is not entitled to the relief sought. Accordingly, relator's petition for writ of mandamus is DENIED. See Tex. R. App. P. 52.8(a). Relator's motion for emergency relief is DENIED as moot.
