DENIED and Opinion Filed May 22, 2023

                                      In The
                            Court of Appeals
                     Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
                               No. 05-23-00486-CV

   IN RE MICHAEL LEWIS AND MICHELLE SHUMATE, IN THEIR
 OFFICIAL CAPACITIES AS ASSISTANT PRINCIPALS AT HIGHLAND
                   PARK SCHOOL, Relators

          Original Proceeding from the 191st Judicial District Court
                            Dallas County, Texas
                     Trial Court Cause No. DC-23-06449

                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                 Before Justices Pedersen, III, Nowell, and Miskel
                            Opinion by Justice Nowell
      Before the Court are relators’ May 19, 2023 petition for writ of mandamus

and emergency motion for temporary relief. Relators challenge the trial court’s May

19, 2023 Order on Plaintiffs’ Emergency Ex Parte Motion for Temporary Injunction.

      Entitlement to mandamus relief requires relators to show that the trial court

clearly abused its discretion and that relators lack an adequate appellate remedy. In

re Prudential Ins. Co. of Am., 148 S.W.3d 124, 135–36 (Tex. 2004) (orig.

proceeding). After reviewing relators’ petition and the record before us, we conclude

that relators have failed to demonstrate entitlement to mandamus relief.
      Accordingly, we deny the petition for writ of mandamus. See TEX. R. APP. P.

52.8(a).

      We also deny relators’ emergency motion as moot.
