             Counsel for Defendants/Appellants
     Alliance Family of Companies and Justin Magnuson
TO THE HONORABLE DALLAS COURT OF APPEALS:
       Subject to the Court granting Appellants’ First Opposed Motion

to Extend Time to File Notice of Appeal and the perfection of

Appellants’ appeal of the trial court’s Order Denying Defendants’

Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Stay or Dismiss Plaintiff’s

Claims, Appellants file this First Opposed Motion to Stay Discovery

Pending Appeal (the “Opposed Motion”). Appellants respectfully

show the Court the following:

       This interlocutory appeal is taken from the trial court’s Order

Denying Defendants’ Motion to Compel Arbitration and to Stay or

Dismiss Plaintiff’s Claims (the “Order”) in JaMisha Nevarez v.

Alliance Family of Cos. and Justin Magnuson, No. DC-18-01162.

Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 29.3, “the appellate court may make any

temporary orders necessary to preserve the parties’ rights until

disposition of the appeal.”

       After Appellants’ counsel conferred with Appellee’s counsel

concerning Appellants’ First Opposed Motion to Extend Time to File

Notice of Appeal, Appellee served written discovery on Appellants. See

Exhibit A, Affidavit of Michael C. Kelsheimer. Specifically, Appellee

Appellants Alliance Family of Companies and Justin Magnuson’s   Page 2 of 8
First Opposed Motion to Stay Discovery Pending Appeal
served 85 numbered and two unnumbered requests for production of

documents and seven interrogatories on Appellant Alliance Family of

Companies, and Appellant served nineteen requests for production of

documents and seven interrogatories on Appellant Justin Magnuson.

See id. Appellee also served requests for disclosure on both Appellants.

See id.

          Thus, if discovery in the trial court is not stayed, within the next

26 days Appellants will be required to undertake the substantial

expenditure of time and resources to respond to 120 written discovery

requests, respond to requests for disclosure, and produce responsive

documents, all while awaiting this Court’s determination on its rights

to arbitrate the disputes between the parties.

          “[T]he main benefits of arbitration lie in expedited and less

expensive disposition of a dispute.” Jack B. Anglin Co., Inc. v. Tipps,

842 S.W.2d 266, 269 (Tex. 1992). Moreover, the purpose of permitting

interlocutory appeals is to increase the efficiency of the judicial process.

Cf. Rusk St. Hosp. v. Black, 392 S.W.3d 88, 96 (Tex. 2012) (noting that

Appellants Alliance Family of Companies and Justin Magnuson’s     Page 3 of 8
First Opposed Motion to Stay Discovery Pending Appeal
“the main purpose of the interlocutory appeal statute … is to increase

efficiency of the judicial process”).

       The possibility of expending significant time and resources on

trial court discovery during the pendency of this appeal to decide

Appellants’ rights to arbitrate is neither hypothetical nor remote.

Responding to the requested discovery would be a significant

undertaking in a case that ultimately may be removed to arbitration. It

would also run counter to the purpose of arbitration and the

interlocutory appeal process and would undercut Appellants’ ability to

be provided full relief in the event Appellants prevail on appeal.

Allowing this case to proceed to discovery would decrease judicial

efficiency and increase the cost of disposing of the parties’ dispute. It

would instead subject the parties to substantial unnecessary

expenditures of time and resources, and it would require the trial court

to likewise expend its limited time and resources in resolving disputes

between the parties.

       For the foregoing reasons, Appellants respectfully request that,

pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 29.3, the Court enter temporary orders

Appellants Alliance Family of Companies and Justin Magnuson’s   Page 4 of 8
First Opposed Motion to Stay Discovery Pending Appeal
staying discovery in Cause No. DC-18-01162 until the Court decides

Appellants’ appeal of the trial court’s order denying their Motion to

Compel Arbitration and to Stay or Dismiss Plaintiff’s Claims.
