new trial. If she fails to comply with this order, the writ will issue. We ORDER the trial judge

to file with this Court, within 30 days of the date of this order, a certified copy of her order

issued in compliance with this order. Relator has not sought recovery of costs in this proceeding,

so we ORDER each party to bear its own costs of this original proceeding.
