1996However, since that decision was reached before the Texas Supreme Court re-emphasized the mandamus requirement of no adequate remedy by appeal in Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833 (Tex.1992), the precedential value of Simpson on this issue is unclear. [9] By contrast, under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, a showing of exceptional circumstances is an exception to both the work product privilege and consulting expert exemption.

2012See CMH Homes v. Perez, 340 S.W.3d 444, 452 (Tex.2011) (impermissible interlocutory appeal from order appointing an arbitrator would be considered as a petition for writ of mandamus, where seller invoked the court of appeals’ appellate jurisdiction by specifically requesting that its appeal be treated as a mandamus petition).

2025To obtain the extraordinary writ of mandamus Novartis has to show that the “trial court abused its discretion and there is no adequate remedy by appeal.” In re Christianson Air Conditioning & Plumbing, LLC, 639 S.W.3d 671 , 681 (Tex. 2022) (citing Johnson v. Fourth Ct. of Appeals, 700 S.W.2d 916, 917 (Tex. 1985). “[A] writ positively will not issue for the purpose of controlling or correcting rulings or judgments on motions or pleas which are mere incidents in the normal trial process and there is an adequate remedy by appeal for correction of any such rulings or judgments which may be erroneo

2015We only issue mandamus "to correct a clear abuse of discretion or the violation of a duty imposed by law when there is no other adequate remedy by law." Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 839 (Tex. 1992) (quoting Johnson v. Fourth Court of Appeals, 700 S.W.2d 916, 917 (Tex. 1985)).

2025Common sense dictates that forcing a business to retool its operations entirely is not the same as making hunters pick a different weekend. 2 2 Defendants mistakenly cite Canadian Helicopters Ltd. v. Wittig, 876 S.W.2d 304, 306 (Tex. 1994), which merely explains the mandamus standard, i.e., that additional “expense or delay” is insufficient to render appellate remedies inadequate. 74 Third, Defendants (at 45-46) fail to rebut the irreparable harms SafeLease still faces even if it could “afford” to survive through trial by providing fewer or worse services.
