N D U M   O P I N I O N
            On May 12, 2003, relator filed a petition for writ of mandamus in this
Court, challenging three pretrial discovery orders of the Honorable Kenneth
Keeling, 278th District Court of Walker County, and the court’s refusal to
quash the deposition of James Boanerges.
            Relator
has not shown an abuse of discretion subject to mandamus regarding the court’s
orders of May 2,
 2003 and May 8,
 2003 for deposition of and certified questions to Kathryn
Wade.  Further, relator
has not shown an abuse of discretion subject to mandamus regarding the court’s
order of May 2, 2003 granting plaintiffs’ motion to compel compliance with
discovery and ordering relator to pay plaintiffs’
attorney’s fees incurred in the motion and hearing.  Last, no order regarding the deposition of
James Boanerges appears in relator’s  exhibits, and no abuse of discretion
has been shown.
 

            We deny relator’s
petition for writ of mandamus.
