IN RE Denise MCVEA
Original Proceeding 1
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice
H. Todd McCray, Justice
Velia J. Meza, Justice
Delivered and Filed: June 24, 2026
PETITION FOR WRIT OF MANDAMUS DENIED
Relator, Denise McVea, filed her petition for writ of mandamus and accompanying record
on June 9, 2026. McVea filed an amended petition for writ of mandamus on June 23, 2026.
Mandamus is an extraordinary remedy, available only when the relator can show (1) the trial court
clearly abused its discretion or violated a duty imposed by law; and (2) there is no adequate remedy
at law, such as an appeal. Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839-40 (Tex. 1992) (orig.
proceeding). Having considered the amended petition, petition, and the record, this court concludes
that McVea has not shown that she is entitled to the relief sought. TEX. R. APP. P. 52.8(a). The
petition for writ of mandamus is denied.
