        The Court, having examined and fully considered these motions, is of the opinion

that they should be granted. Accordingly, we grant the real parties’ Unopposed Motion

for a Stay of this Court’s Order and Trial Proceedings Pending Rehearing of Mandamus

Petition.   We stay our order granting mandamus relief and requiring action by the

respondent, and we similarly stay all trial court proceedings, including discovery, pending

further order of this Court or the resolution of the real parties’ motion for rehearing. We

grant the real parties’ First Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to File Motion for

Rehearing of Mandamus Petition, and such motion will be due on or before February 11,

2019.

        IT IS SO ORDERED.
